Mission Accomplished.




Saturday morning started busy having one thing in my mind; must complete the 'Bomb'. After two hours,one hour was spent for soldering alone. The remaining being used to sort the components and planning the whole job.
This is the 'prototype' just after first 'power on'.No smoke or smell of smoke...phew! :D
It's on a plank just to position the mainboard and the transformers.. If it's working, then gonna get super duper casing for it...
Connected to 3 difference type of speakers(2way DIY, Panasonic 2way and Monitor Audio R252). Source was a Sony PCDP.. The sound was amazing! After one hour later, its even more amazing.. details, low end extension.. I can't simply believe my ears. Pix on top shows the 'wet run' just out side the dining hall.. don't wanna 'blow' anything up... it is,'the bomb'! Hahaha.
Contacted the 'customer' to try out in his system. Lets see how it faired head on with the customer's existing Audiolab 8000P power amp setup... more surprises coming up... watch this space.

Yes, i too heard it on the customer's system....the "bomb" against the audiolab power amp. Wow i was amazed!!! 1-0 to the "bomb". Music on the customer's audiolab was wow....but this DIY "bomb" sure is giving it a fight. I would say at par to audiolab but excels in the lower spectrum. Bass was definitely more and defined....what a shocker. JazTech Audio is surely giving AudioLab a serious competition!!!! Customer's wife too said that she prefered the "bomb" sound compared to their AudioLab. Mids were comparatively similar and highs too. So overall the "bomb" sounds like an AudioLab but on steroids for bass, BUT not the weak bass....man i am talking about tight and on the spot bass!!! Kudos again JazTech Audio!!!!
