Wow I have never actually seen on like this. I have read about them mostly in Europe where they have 220+. Usually someone on an insanely low budget using nothing but scrap or recycled parts. They did not even use spring clip for the anode connector they soldered the wire right to the cap. I mean their is building to a price point then their is just being cheap! I would love to see what it's signal looks like on a scope. I am guessing that if they where that price conscious that they prob. made compromises in every single section and with every part?!?! Have you had a chance to hear your own signal yet or gotten any feedback from people you talk to regularly? SO do let us know how it performs in real life!! I can make un-informed guess's all day but that does not mean much at the end of the day. If you have nice clean power in your area it might be fine but if you have noisy dirty power with lots of surges and ripples and such it would reek havoc on that type of design.
