Re: Known Problems with the Site

For those that read the 'new posts' we had an outage, the site's tapatalk plugin isn't working so I finally got in touch with the hosting company support, and they were useless, didn't answer any questions, and then did a full scan of all of Allyn's sites and found some malware and shut down all hi...

No problem
My post is a reply from way up the list of pages somewhere, so it does not make much sense on this page :)

Re: Do not order from Wattstubeaudio

That's weird, I don't even stock 20pf caps

Probably my source mixed something in with the 250p caps?

I just dump big bags of parts into bin boxes when I receive a shipment :D

But that stuff does happen once in a while and I fix it as soon as I know about it

Re: Do not order from Wattstubeaudio

I just finished building a high gain "Jose Marshall" 25 watt amp and it has no detectable hum. The reason I ordered one 8 inches deep was to keep the tubes and heaters away from the preamp, tonestack, and volume controls. Also, I etched PCBs based on that size chassis, so I would have to modify my ...

Re: Hoffman 18 watt stout

Hi. I have just built the Stout, and I have great difficulties in making it work. It began with a loud hum, but with sound. At the moment there are no sound from the input, but the volume and treble works, at least making some changes to the overall sound, relatively high pitch. Anywhere I can begi...

Re: Do not order from Wattstubeaudio

I’m in the boat too. Ordered 400 eyelets on June 4th. Got a confirmation email that it was processing but no ship info. Haven’t seen anything yet. I did read a post identical to this one on FB and decided to order still. Where do you guys get your eyelets, if not from Watts? Eyelets, board material...

Man I have been dealing with Ken Watts since May 1, 2018 order and another order shortly after that. I finally took action today after being told he would get everything shipped out, well he did not.

Re: Do not order from Wattstubeaudio

I only order chassis from him and it always takes a long time. I ordered 10 days ago and the status is still "Processing". I have always had this kind of delay from Watts, but I can't find a better deal on aluminum chassis. 17.5x8x2.5 chassis is 44.00 plus shipping. Does anyone know of a better sou...
