Title: Crack amp working...finally!
Post by: es347 on March 30, 2014, 02:15:54 PM

Well we finally got my Crack with the Speedball upgrade running thanks to Grainger and my local tech.  It sounds pretty darn good for an amp in that price range.  Compared to my other amps, a Cary HH-1 and a the SS Perraux, it loses but still pretty darn good.  I am very pleased with the aesthetic.

Ah, it looked like it has some sparkle to it, like some gold flakes or something in the paint.
