GETDYNACO PAS:

I’ve been looking for the right tube amp solution for some time now while getting as internet smart as I can.  With numerous China options out there it was tempting, yet I remember a friend back in the 70s had a Dynakit St-35 amp and a PAS Preamp and the sound quality was very good.  After viewing a few GETDYNACO videos, I decided this is the way I wanted to go.  I sent my request to Kenny for a price and payment instructions for a PAS Preamp and my journey into Tube HiFi Audio was started

Kenny has been and is the guy I was looking for and his help and attention to detail is a rare find these days.  His work is meticulous and my new PAS Preamp looks and performs perfectly.  I am on my way to soon contacting him again to build me an ST-70 Amp and I can’t wait.  Get yourself off the fence and contact Kenny today and have him help you get a GETDYNACO Tube Amp and or Preamp that you've been looking for.  He will take you through the process of selecting just the right options and then get ready for the magic to happen.

Dynakit MKIII (Audiophile/Amtrans Build):

I stayed up to around 1:00 in the morning yesterday listening to those amps you built for me. I attached a few pictures to share with you. I did exactly as you said setting the amps up with the bias settling in after about 20 minutes to 1.49 volts. I had already hooked up the ST-35 to the Klipsch Cornwalls because they are slightly more bass-heavy than the fully horn loaded Klipsch Belles. I didn’t power up the ST-35 at this time just yet. I finally powered up my Aretha preamp along with the Mark IIIs and began streaming off of Spotify using my Wiin Pro Plus DAC streamer. These are not high resolution files but still of descent quality. I will try my best to explain the sounds coming out of my Belles…..

Holy shit!!! Wow!!!!  The stereo separation between left and right channels is truly incredible! The soundstage is much wider and deeper than the ST-35. I heard sounds coming out of these Klipsch Belles that I have never heard before. These speakers have modified wooden horns, upgraded tweeters, and modded crossovers. My system is now at a new level of what I consider high end, especially for the money I have invested in the system. Hell, the sound literally scared the shit out of me on a few new songs I was listening to. The dynamics from low to high passages were so brutally impactful that I jumped. After a couple of hours of listening to the Belles, I turned on the ST-35 powering the Cornwalls. Good lord, the crystal clear volume, along with tremendous amounts of bass was shocking to say the least. We are talking (4) 15” subs in this system. It’s as if you could turn the volume up loud without a hint of distortion coming out of the speakers. I didn’t push it too hard but the power is there at your disposal. You would have to hear it to believe it. My solid state amps could never do this without hurting your ears in the process.

I just want to say, “Thank You, Kenny!!!” Thank you for building me such wonderful amps that I will enjoy for years. This is truly the sound I have been searching for since I have been a teenager. I hope you have a great weekend.

The PAS is just lovely. The phono preamp is one of the best I've ever heard.

Dynaco ST-35:

 Loving the amp for sure.   Selling the $5k (new) Pass Labs XA25 and $9k (new) CJ ET5.  That about says it all.   Marriage made in heaven with the Cornwalls

Dynaco ST-35:

Hey Kenny.  Been playing with the amp all morning.  It's quite good!  I honestly wasn't expecting it to be so small but that's not an issue, it sounds fantastic.  We do have one problem though.  What do I do with my other amps now that this one has kicked them to the curb?  Seriously, I've been swapping in and out gear this morning and comparing and I'm firmly believing that this little ST35 has outperformed my small solid state amp and my single ended 6L6 amp with very high end parts used throughout.  I wasn't expecting there to be this big of a difference between them for sure, much less embarrass them by how much more real and musical the ST35 sounds.  It's kind of revelatory.  Having dabbled in "high end" for quite a while it takes a lot for a product to impress me and even out of the gate this morning and the very few hours I've got on it, it's already proving itself to be an exceptional piece.

Dynaco MKIII pair and PAS Preamplifier:

We got home last night I just had to hear "Tennessee Whiskey," with my buddy's sound fresh in my ears. My wife and daughter witnessed me being reduced to tears. It's the definition of Eureka! I have found it! The perfect sound I have been searching for my entire life. It's finally in my living room, the search is over. The Experience is now at my fingertips. There's a power threshold I was never able to meet before...where the volume is too loud for comfort, yet still crystal clear, with bass as intimidating as the footsteps of Godzilla. I'm there now, I had my ears ringing yesterday. I got some stuff to do this morning, then we'll see what music the afternoon calls for. I do not intend to treat the Experience casually, I must approach it with gratitude and give it my full attention. I won't even attempt to describe it with audiophile superlatives...

Dynaco ST-35:

The system sounds amazing. I have so much work to do still because I literally have not been able to get up from my chair for hours. I keep putting on just one more song and then one more after that. Thank you for everything. You’re the best.

Kenny, this is insane. How did you do this? May I ask if you built a ST-T 70 with no holds barred, how much better could it get compared to what I am experiencing now? All I can say is wow!

PAS Preamplifier:

The Dynaco PAS-3 preamplifier sounds great  and is perfect match with my amplifier. I really enjoy listening to vinyl with this setup. The build quality of the preamplifier is top notch and looks great inside and out. Great communication and customer service.

Dynaco ST-70:

This was a 100%, 5 star transaction. The amp was shipped promptly, the packaging was beyond excellent. One could tell a lot of care and thought was put into insuring the package would arrive damage free. There was even a follow up conversation concerning the proper set up and other important information. Seller was friendly and helpful in every way. I will certainly seek out this seller for any future dynaco or tube amp concerns. Not to mention, the amp sounds wonderful! Thanks!

Dynaco ST-70:

Absolutely love my unit! This has got to be the greatest customer experience I've had in years. The communication was timely and accurate. I never felt pressured or thought I was being "sold something". The Dynakit based Preamp PAS-3(M) sounds amazing. It's the perfect combination of Vintage and New technologies.

ST-70 Tube Amplifier:

Several weeks ago I purchased two Dynaco ST-70 from Kenny. He discussed potential options with reference to upgrades and then went about building both units quickly and with extreme precision - as I waited for the day when they would arrive. In the interim, Kenny provided diagrams that explained how to configure the amps as mono blocks. The amps arrived in less than three weeks. They were well packed and beautiful to see upon unboxing. After installing the tubes, getting the speaker wires hooked up, and plugged in the power - it was time to see them light up. And light up they did. Within a couple of moments, out came sweet beautifully separated stereo music owing to the mono block configuration. The notes, chords, vocals, strings and any other instrument playing through my Klipsch's were crisp and clear in ways I had never heard before. I quickly learned the meaning of listening to music though tube amps. I suddenly knew why I had wanted a tube amp for years. Wonderful, staggering, mind blowing, heavenly, precise, and real. In the end, there was nothing more to ask for...These amps sound great!!!!
