R300 Plus Tube Amplifier 300Bx2 Single-Ended Class A Integrated Power Amplifier Headphones All in One

This item provides great satisfaction for audio folks. Reminds one of a bygone era with its deep and rich sound. It ca really drive good speakers, The chassis and cabinet are solid metal. Good attention to detail. A solid machine.

Mi primera impresion es que es en realidad un buen amplificador integrado. su sonido es detallado en el medio y su grave se manifiesta con mucha seguridad. Creo q es una excelente pieza para comenzar en el mundo audiofilo, y donde los melomanos que llevamos algun tiempo coleccionando equipos y que gozamos de la buena musica, lo incluyeramos en nuestro repertorio electronico. Aunque es de solo 8watts de potencia se manifiesta bien con bocinas de estanteria. Recomendable para habitaciones pequeñas.

I immediately had to write this review because this amplifier is insanely amazing. I have owned many amplifiers and this is hands down on another level. The construction of this amplifier is soo gorgeous, soo beautiful, soo well made and heavy it left me speechless. This amplifier is made by true craftsman and engineers. The hard work that went into this is breathtaking. It has an automotive paint job! It has a beautiful blue smooth paint job! This kills anything a western brand makes and then pisses on it. The value for the money is unbelievable. I don't know how Willsenton can make a profit at this price but I am extremely grateful and will save up to purchase the rest of their products because aftering powering it on this amplifier sounds as impressive as it looks. The sound is the greatest thing I've ever heard. After a life of solid state amps and a few class d I went to tubes first with tube headphone amplifiers and this is my first 300b speaker amplifier. At 8 watts this plays louder, more musical, smoother and with more crystal clear authority than any solid state or class d I've ever heard. I have this amp hooked up to my fully upgraded tekton pendragons and the sound is magical. Crystal clear mids and highs, smooth, natural, life like, and it has slam and authority. Yes, this does not play softly it is perfectly dynamic. This amp plays rock, vocals, instrumentals and pop with authority and ease. I have the Volume set at 9 o clock and going any higher it gets very loud but still crystal clear and smooth. It is unbelievably linear. Thank you willsenton for making this product at such a great price. This easily competes with products many times higher in price and I am extremely grateful to be able to own a 300b of this very high quality. If anyone is interested I can tell you honestly it's more than worth it. You will listen to your whole library all over again with this because it's that good. It brought my music to life.

When the Willsenton R300 first appeared on Amazon I was curious about it. Then Steve Huff, on YouTube, did a glowing review of it. That convinced me to buy it. I am sure glad I did. Not only is it a beautiful amp to look at, but it is one incredible sounding amplifier. The build quality is amazing for the price. I replaced all the tubes with premium quality tubes. That really opened the amp up in sound quality. If you are curious, as I was, about what a quality 300b amplifier sounds like you owe it to yourself to buy this amplifier. It is probably one of the greatest audio bargains on Amazon right now.

Unit looks really good, and sounded (past tense) pretty decent. I put really expensive tubes in it, like Cryotone and Western Electric 300B but found that it didn't really make a big difference in the sound. It always sounded "ok". My complaint is that after 14 months of fairly light use (couple of hours/week) the amp started blowing rectifier tubes. There's 2 of them, $175 each so $350 bucks of sparkling and sizzling death every time you turn on the amp with new tubes. Which I did exactly twice, so $700 down the drain. Amp is out of warranty, of course. Questionable whether it is worth getting it repaired. Now I have a really good looking boat anchor...
