Hi Chris,
The amplifier in the picks looks to be very well made, well,,, on the outside anyway, [reminds me of some of the Shanling equipment in its design] so i would expect the internals to be very well constructed too.
However; as to whether the creator of this paticular piece of equipment had a "sound" in mind when he built it, i wouldnt like to comment, all i can say is; if it plays music in a way that connects with you, then that is all that matters.
