Re: $600 fuse, anyone?
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.

Re: USA Source for a 5E3 Deluxe Chassis?
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.

Re: Stereo Ampifier?
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.

Re: USA Source for a 5E3 Deluxe Chassis?
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 ...

It's a simple circuit to do PtP with a small Hammond box.
And easier with a turret board or card.
