Hi Rex,
Welcome to AoS, it's nice that you've joined us.
What sort of music do you like to play?

Cheers


....oh, would you mind amending your details to show your location as something a little less vague than USA - that's a big place! It's one of the things we like to do to encourage a more friendly community here.

Received Bushmaster today which wife bought for me. Wow. Fast Shipping. Hooked up unit and it sounds good out of the box. I registered on the AOS forums, but couldn't seem to post. You can see my systems in the welcome section. I have a tip for you and anyone else that may be interested. Here it is: Giant Killer Amp: Qinpu A6000 MKII tube amp. Replace Chinese Tubes with 2 GE 5670 ($5.00 each) GE 5670 5 star ($25.00 ea) Western Electric 396a ($50.00 ea) or the ultimate tube: bendix 6385 (very rare: $175.00 ea) which I use. Sound goes from very good to great to stunning. available at Amazon for $279.00 or cheaper at Ebay. For a rechargeable battery pack, the Mili Power King 18000 mah or incredicharge 18000 mah with outlets for 9-12 v, 5 v or 16-19 v. at amazon. Have it hooked up to the bushmaster using 9-12 v outlet and there is a huge improvement in slam and dynamics. For cd listening, I use a radioshack optimus cd 3400 as transport, powered by a Custom Dick Sequerra PS1 battery powered supply. Try these cd recordings: Reference Recordings Reference Jazz and/or the Chesky Jazz sampler and prepare to be amazed. Thanks again for a great product.

Hi Rex and welcome to AOS!
I've heard a lot of good things about the Perreaux amps - they hail from New Zealand, right?
