Curious, what’s going into the power supply? Are you gonna go NOS CF on the dropping resistors? Screen resistors? Bias supply? Or are ya goin modern production substitutes? I've already bought all new stuff and doing a precision supply. I don't know about the droppers I have some CC that Smitty gav...

I hope this isn't getting as testy as it seems? be kind, rewind and all that.

does the polarity of the choke matter I recall seeing one forum post claiming that choke polarity made a difference in the sound, but I don't believe it. Yeah I can't even imagine 'directionality' in wire. I've also heard HiFi enthusiasts buying wire that was directional and costs a fortune... if i...

Figure I can post a progress pic. To show it's coming along.
Edit: I have those 4 .082's there because I plan on pulling the 0.1s and replacing per Smitty's comments

As mentioned, I need to start pulling it all together. I know i need a PT, might need a few more things like the on board pots, etc. I have a lot of my own things I've collected but am trying to use Smitty's parts first, before adding in more. He did give me some .086 uF caps that are NOS sprague, ...

trying to use Smitty's parts first, before adding in more. He did give me some .086 uF caps that are NOS sprague, and mentioned I should use those in place of the .1 caps... seems like it's pretty close, and likely since it's not a bass amp is likely just fine, but open to feedback on that as well....

Hi all. I'm finally getting to building a #102. I was gifted the chassis, and board (an AA Electronics board) by professormudd I also got a batch of components from Smitty that I'm using everywhere I can. I bought the OT and a choke from a forum member a while back, and I've got some other component...

The site is still running and is safe. I use Firefox to get to it, Brave won't let me. Oops, didn't see Greg's post. :) I met Enzo at his shop several years ago and bought several items he was getting rid of. He was a very smart guy with a great sense of humor. He helped me the most by encouraging ...

I can unlock it again to let you edit it, in fact it's done, just let me know when done. We don't want 'replies' there so I'll relock it again when you've updated it. As for new posts, I'm fine with anyone posting, but I'll basically look more to all of us to determine if it belongs there or not and...

cool, go ahead and post that faq and I'll sticky it.

I thought when I created them I told them to import from existing forums for their permissions... that didn't seem to take so I had to go redo the permissions manually.

Very cool. If you get a chance to head up north, Scotland is amazing as well.
