Any users or experiences of their integrated valve amps please?
Ta.

From what I can tell, they don't seem to make any true 230v versions. I think others here have pointed out this can be problematic.
Are you sure about this? Didn't hear of any such issue and the local importer here is selling lots of these.

Be careful with this, I have first hand experience of this. If they are not designed for UK voltage, which is only nominally 230, more typically 240 and can rise to 253 on occasion, they will run hot. A tranny amp is stepped down, so it is more tolerant. A valve is less so. Are they fit for use? Well, they work. But they will fail. A 240V primary transformer will cost £90, a buck/boost less. Both require competent installation. Once installed, the thing will run perfectly. My Yaqin has this, I will put it up against any EL34 valve amp.No I'm not sure tbh, presumably they're fit for purpose so.
Aren’t most electronics Chinese-made at the moment? Phone I’m typing on is, seems fine.Don't be fooled by the reviews. One of my contacts in German was the European service agent for LM and he said there are a lot of design issues with this equipment. Not sure why people are so keen to buy Chinese made electronics when not even the Chinese buy it...
At the end of the day you only get what you pay for...

This smacks of xenophobia.
Why not furnish us with the evidence? Who is your supposed contact?
You sound a tad like a guy who makes valve amps that are not selling and cost a lot more than their far east competitiors.
It came from China and they have not so much as even apologised.
If it comes from China I don't buy it.
I rthink you'd do well to read about the 2 brothers who created Line M and their story. None of it sounds like what you are saying.
