It is not that I hugely like it, in fat if I know about them what I know now I would probably try something else. But B-2 does what it does, it has some cone and pros and it is not much different than any other SS amps I would try. Also, I found a way to deal with B-2’s wrong bass – I just patched the MiniMe with passive radiators and it looks as it “cured” the problem – the MiniMe resonance frequency looks like got higher and bass less expended but WAY more proper. Also there is not port noise anymore…
I did not do a lot of modification with B2. I just decreased it gain for a lot (350R-36R divider) – to synchronize the B2-MiniMe gains with Milq-Macondo. I increased the input impedance to near 400R – I do not want the plugged B2 to affect the Melquiades input filters. I also bypassed all amp switchers – was very badly implemented- and deliver the signal from input directly to the first stage. All modifications are very-very simple… Let live with this beast for now and will see if I will hate it in a few month.
