This sounds really nice! Do we know what the speakers are?

Cheers

...it’s just one guy naming his creations. No use in getting fixated on what he called an SSS without a post phase inverter cathode followers, or if 121 is an ODS with SSS features or a SSS with ODS features . It just is a thing and has a sound and he happened to call it by whatever . Obviously Dum...

Ciao Gaetano, Do you remember who inserted that layout on TAG? maybe he recorded some little demos that would be useful to understand how it sounds. A hug Franco Ciao Franco. I found the original thread that contained that layout. https://ampgarage.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=35237&start=15 Cheers Guy

More progress. The wire used in my previous builds was running out and for this one I used Alpha wire solid core 18awg, 1kV, pvc. That wire supposed to be be tinned copper, however this is not as soft copper as I was used too. Anyone got experience with this specific type? Great looking build Erwin...

Wow, bought for peanuts. Maybe peanut bits. Anyone have Eminence as a go to? This is my Go To Eminence speaker for my SSS builds. Eminence 1518 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SiC0xnVzyIo&t=87s I tried a lot speakers and for the clean tones this was the winner! SM57 up close to the speaker and stra...

Glad to see you are back here Tom!
Your posts were very helpful for me when I was building my first ODS #124 back in 2014. I still run across all your comments when I am searching for information and they are always so helpful.
So glad to see you are back here. You inspire all of us.
Cheers

Running a quad of 6CA7 at approx 445vDC plates I get right at 80w of power before the waveform starts to clip. Not bad! Will try to shoot a decent soundclip to share at some point. Congrats on your power up! I also experienced the marshall style break up on mine once I ran it with 6550 tubes and to...

Pulled tubes. Clipped artificial ground and 1 ohm resistors on V4. Isolated 4 leads to HV windings. Have no continuity between HV, heater or primary windings, do have continuity through each winding, all looks good. Checked heaters on each tube as I pulled them, all look good. Is there anything els...

Might be a silly question - but after scrolling through and reading this thread half a dozen times I was wondering if the main board layout on page 3 of the bigger attachment was actual size to transfer to board material when printed out? Apologies if I missed it - but I don't think I did? Thanks a...

For comparison a "Dumbleland Special" 150W: https://ampgarage.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=130484#p130484 Thanks for posting Max. I am also hearing that great driven tone from the 6550 tubes in the mp3 in the link you sent. Its a very distinctive driven tone that you dont really get with 6L6 tubes. Re...

Interesting, I am hearing breakup happening on some of those Nashville tracks recorded with this Steel String Singer. Many people that are not into building amps think all these SSS amps are perfectly clean but I realized that is not the case and some models do get a fair amount of breakup happenin...

Anyone ca recommend a good products of bargain speakers The op Probably won't see this but I like eminence legend series pretty well. Probably not the best sounding speaker ever made but they'll handle a lot of power. They work well with higher gain and sound ok clean. Peavey scorpions I like them ...

I'd tune in just for Samantha. At the risk of sounding like a dirty ol man. I could listen to her all day long seeing her would just be the icing on the cake Yes I agree Samantha Fox makes some beautiful music and yes seeing her would be the icing on the cake too. Looking forward to watching this i...

Sounds great. How do you access the pay per view? Can you stream it on the web or do you need cable TV? I have Rogers cable TV here in Canada and they say I can purchase it when its live through my converter. In USA its available through lots of providers. Just saw a Youtube video of the Toronto sh...
