The Amp Garage

P.T. Barnum comes to mind.

So for A.C. I need two, in parallel, reversed, as they are directional.
If ever there was an industry that needs double blind testing, or the focus of the FTC, I think we have a winner.

Yes it got the Sugi treatment. It's a one piece cab with a Weber A10Q and a C10Q. Here's the pedal compartment (7x6x7" deep). 20240405_170656.jpg Brilliant! Interesting choice of speaker combination. I used the same pair in a bigger box with great success so i tried using them here also. I prefer t...

Here's a stereo power amp I made as a final for a Magnatone clone. Each side is a single ended KT-88 driven by one side of a 12AU7. Stereo in, stereo out.

It's far, far quieter. Filtering is better ground scheme is better, and the heaters are elevated. Having hand issues and upcoming surgery so progress has been slow but here's the cab in process. Sounds great with 2 10" speakers. 20231214_214706.jpg Thanks, very interesting info. Your cab, or is it ...

And be sure the bias voltage is at the pins before installing the power tubes.

Anyone use hurricane nuts?

I think I'd build another cabinet and resaw that gorgeous wood into guitar tops and backs!

Guys, I miss the salt- and fat-free steamed vegetables and tofu in your daily diet :mrgreen: We got lots of spinach and lettuce but no one wants to see pics of that. Tofu will never ever touch my lips. I'm trying to grow some broccoli and cauliflower for the first time but it's not going good so fa...

That's pretty much its value.

You've done well R.G. if you landed a NASA gig you might have been too busy to have shared your extensive solid state knowledge with us over the last several decades. Geofex is a valued resource and has aided thousands in accessing the intricacies of the pedal world.

Maybe space requirements only allowed certain size caps in the designated area. Or Weber got great pricing on smaller caps. Hifi guys frequently use a combination of caps for faster response, but they are typically usually smaller values, and differing construction. For instance paralleled 20uF and ...

A bit extreme possibly. But you might get a few more hours from them before the heater boils away.
