Bottlehead Quicksand Battery Powered Amplifier Kit

Jeff Poth has posted a review of the Bottlehead Quicksand battery powered amplifier kit ($119) at Enjoy the Music. His conclusions:

“This has been a tough review to write and I’ve taken my time doing so. Bottlehead’s Quicksand is a unique product, superior to the low-end pre-manufactured Class D amplifiers I’ve worked with, but not competitive with (much more expensive) amplifiers that it was compared to. For a beginning DIYer, it’s a great amp, with good clarity, dynamics, and smooth sound, and an easy build. This amp is perfect for a higher-end portable setup, or for use with desktop speakers, or any time when low power requirements are needed and portability is important.”
