A local guy asked me that since my low-powe,  full-range Milq is sitting in my storage and I do not use it then he would like to try it: he has 1110dB sensitive speakers and SET and PP amps. I figure out that if I give the Milqs to him now then I will be moving less crap from my storage in my new place as he will return Milqs back to new place.  Anyhow, I brought the Milq back home to inspect how much rats in my storage eat them. I kind of forgot how my full-range Milq looks like during the time passed and I tell you I have a renew love to those amps. I do not take about sound – it is not the subject for me anymore – I have discovered all about the Sound years back. In addition I have a full-range Milq built in my current 6-ch Milq configuration. What I meant that caring the full-range Melquiades last week I was stricken how pleasant the amp in its physical materialization.

The proportion of size, weigh, the distribution of weigh, my knowledge how much was stiffed into this amp and how rationally internally everything is located, grounded and wired made me very happy that this amp was made by basically such a deranged “designer” and “builder” as I am. Particularly the idea to have an empty steal shell that has no mounting holes for internal hardware was very-very cool idea. The large parts of the amp are not bolted to the chassis but glued with heavy-duty silicon and it gives to the amps a VERY special feeling. It is very interesting to tap the amp chassis or to drop it to floor from a few fee millimeters of heights – Milq responds with very interesting physical sound – it is like a sound of not completely cooked egg, has sort of own inertia in there – very cool feeling.
Anyhow, I had so much pleasure to touch the amp that I decided to celebrate the delight with a picture: here is goes…
