It reminds me of the episode of The Simpsons where he designs an automobile.
First off, I think you have one of the top audiophile channels on YT and come to trust your opinions on gear more than most. You get into the technical details to just the right amount, not getting overly technical like a handful of reviewers but not glossing over or leaving out entirely important details like some others.
I was a reviewer/writer of photographic and computer software/hardware for a number of years. I had my own column alongside some much bigger name reviewers. I'd be doing it still if not for vision problems that made my writing slow to a crawl. (You'd be surprised how long these few sentences took to write and correct. Thank goodness for writing aids like spellcheck.)
If I could offer you some constructive commentary it would be to not make your edits so tight to one another when you're on the screen and try to get by with fewer cuts. Give yourself a bit more space. I've watched Marques Brownlee's (MKBHD) channel since he was a teen and I wrote to him pretty much saying the same things I did here. Not that I think I was an influence as I'm sure many others were giving him feedback too. He's done well. 😋
I wish you well and hope next year will bring you prosperity, good health and happiness.
I appreciate your feedback, thanks for the kind words!
I just ordered the Douk T8 pro for the main reason of adding an analog input to the chain for a turntable. It’s crazy how few budget dacs have analog inputs - Fiio and emotiva are the only ones I could find. The wiim ultra has a phono/line inputs but get immediately gets digitized(ADC).
With the T8 pro you can go Dac>xlr input / TT>rca and xlr out > speaker amps / rca out > subwoofer (both outputs are always on). This is something I haven’t seen covered on UA-cam 😉
Good tip on the connections on the T8!
Great review Matt! This looks so retro and modern at the same time. This looks like something I might have seen in a catalog around Christmas time in the 60s. LOL Have a Happy Thanksgiving!
Would have been really interesting to see those ads compared to today.
Nice job, Matt. I’ve seen this a few times. I keep thinking it’s a tire inflator and the meter is PSI.
Bienvenido Matt!
Se agradece escuchar tu revisión traducida al español.
Mucha suerte a tu canal!
Good review. Happy Thanksgiving my friend.
Same to you!
Thanks man!
No problem Tony
I would get the Douk T7 or T8 pro instead as it is also* a 7 band equalizer (*just in the case of the T7). It would add something instead of replacing it. Hopefully not just extra noise and signal pollution.
Sure, I can see that depending on your needs. The good thing about this price category is you certainly have options.
If you like this one, you gotta try their cheapo E6 direct heat tube preamp, totally minimalistic but with an amazing sound from a direct heat tubes design which can comapre with those costing tens of times of money!
Cool, nice quick one, thanks Matt!!!
Right to the points today, have a good one!
Missed you at thanksgiving.
Hey Jake! Take an extra trip through the desserts for me.
Thank you for your video.
What would be the result if I connect this preamp to a 2x200W power amp ?
Is the sound would be ok ?
Have a safe and happy Thanksgiving my friend…
I missed this, hope you had a great one!
Is this audio gear or a digital compressor to pump up my tyres?
Maybe both
Probably worth the price if it had a newer ESS chip.
It's close to year 2025 and I'm wondering why are we still using vacuum tubes for pre-amp? I thougt there are solid state semiconductors that's very close in performance to a vacuum tube like JFETs. BTW I have a Douk U3 headphone amp and a year ago, it was functuioning very good. Now, it's crap like there sometimes hiss and crackling noise. so, just my two cents.
Something is wrong here. Why would they put the subwoofer volume control with the main volume control? And about time every manufacturer did that! They can even add a simple hi and low pass.
Looks awfull IMhO
ugly
Eye of the beholder right haha
I see your "Zu" showing 👀 🔊 because I am trapped like an addict in this hobby I am seriously considering selling some equipment and upgrading.
Maybe by spring I will have the upgrade itch and Zu has been on my short list to try out. 🕺🏻🔊
