Muzishare X11 845 Tube Integrated Amp Review

[@net_news]

They should release a preamp only version, high quality tube preamps have crazy prices We need the Muzishare take on them!!

[@Tharbamar]

Good point and great suggestion I will tell them, thanks

[@progrock3603]

If they had a preamp I would buy the pair in a second. My Musical Paradise preamp MP-701 is great but don’t know about synergy! I don’t like mix and matching. Happy Holidays! Merry Christmas!

[@johntucker5994]

Looks like a high quality amplifier. Thank you for noting that this amp is made in the same factory as Line Magnetic. That was new information to me.

[@Tharbamar]

Thank you, I'm glad you found that helpful.

[@AlexanderG-mi7ip]

Very appealing and warm sounding tube amp. Thank you for this great video...

[@Tharbamar]

Many thanks!

The only problem with this unit is that, if the VU meter ever decides to go south you can't adjust the bias and will need to open the unit. I'm not sure if it me, but it seems the sounds appear to be compress and of course YT do compress when video is upload. I do use external DAC/AMP/Headphone but hardly hearing the differences from your others many videos. While I was messing around with a video editing software and upload a test music video to KZbin. The editing software not only can it add music track separately but it also allowing to use which type of codec sound format in your video. Appear default sound is ACC which is a lossy compression, a little better than MP3. Once I change it to lossless like FLAC, the sound was way much better even after uploading it to KZbin. Another scenario, if he plugged the microphone into the camera in which it will limit the recording sound to max of 48khz / 16 bit. If using a separate equipment to records sound where you can select higher sampling and bit rate and later added to the video with a choice of codec will improve the sound quality tremendously. That just my 2 cents

[@matytinman]

The problem is KZbin. Same 4K / AAC 192 kbps video (usually from 24/96 FLAC 0 vinyl rip) sounds better in Vimeo. I have a few high quality ones on my free Vimeo channel that can be compared to their KZbin counterparts. The Vimeo address is on my YT account.

[@Tharbamar]

Thanks for your input, All of my sound samples are recorded with Tascam recorder with external Sony condenser microphones and recorded in 24/96K WAV, not from camera attached microphones.

[@ywsx6489]

No wonder Line Magnetic and Muzishare amps are so similar. The transformers are potted and really heavy. My LM 501ia is super heavy too. it should have been mono blocs.

[@matytinman]

Great sound! BTW, you need to change the title: Muzushare -> Muzishare

[@Tharbamar]

Thank you for catching that.

[@joseescala7032]

I wish you a happy Christmas holiday season, one question, can I install any valve I want on any valve amplifier? Oh, only one in particular, I send you my best regards 👋

[@Tharbamar]

Some valves are interchangeable but most of them require to use same valves but of course you can use different brands. Thanks

[@hyungjunkim1773]

Hi, always great review! I bought Muzishare X9 just after watching your X9 and I am happy with it so much. Thanks! I am wondering how X11 is different from X9 with in same speaker comparison. And I have a little question that my X9 has an electrical hum on the amplifier it self (not from speakers). I can hear it from near three transformers specially in the middle one. is it normal for tube amplifiers?

[@Tharbamar]

Hi, it's from power transformer mostly caused by line noise or ground lift some where, I would try different outlet from different room, also try to switch tubes from left to right recheck the bias, thanks

[@dougg1075]

It’s a beautiful amp. Hmmm

[@rambler3080]

The sound sample sounds nice but compared to other videos you’ve posted the notes sound rounded and there is a lack of transient speed and incisiveness. I guess there is no free lunch.

[@rambler3080]

I’ve seen some YT assessments of Muzichare has some underspec’d parts that may affect reliability. Have you had any issues?

[@Tharbamar]

I have not had any issue with them.

[@eng-lokchua7819]

Just wondering if this awesome X11 would be a good match with my Dali Rubikore 2 ??

[@Tharbamar]

It should sound good together, thanks

[@eng-lokchua7819]

@Tharbamar, thanks for your quick response.

[@7302ab]

question, would a fosi za3 sound better than a sony strdn surround amplifier

[@ThatAnalogDigital]

Lol!!!

[@Tharbamar]

Hi sound is subjective both can be highly benefited from right paring, personally I would go with Sony.

[@jameschan2404]

I think we need a forklift to move the unit into position.

[@Tharbamar]

Yep

[@zeissiez]

Can it drive LS50 well ?

[@Tharbamar]

Yes definitely.

[@rastheike4329]

Thank you very much for making this new flame 🔥 known. ❤Heike

[@dennishill290]

👍🍺🔈🔈🔈...... !

[@dingskydongsky]

those coupling caps should show the real brand name and not be hanging loose like that !
