Re: A 1959-ish 10W PP Class AB with 6K6s

I recently built a single channel inspired by the 6G3 deluxe using 6K6GT’s. I used Edcor iron. http://www.ppwatt.com/node/18343 http://www.ppwatt.com/node/18344 6K6-GT GE Datasheet.pdf I ended up rewiring the amp recently to utilize a 6G6B style tone stack. I love it now. http://www.ppwatt.com/node/...

Re: Spruce 1x10 cabinet

It’s my understanding that the baffle is attached on only 2 opposing sides.

Seems like it would rattle if left truly floating in a rabbit groove.

Bad solder joint?
Did you check PA bias and plate dissipation?

Re: 2x12 Speaker cabinet for JM sig and plexi

I have a 1x12 w/ oval cutout back panel loaded w/ an WGS ET65—it sounds great with everything I’ve thrown at it. I do not have a plexi style amp. The 18watt sounds great.

Re: How to clean motherboards?

How do you dunk it if you are reworking/modifying a previously constructed amp?… I really try not to remove an already installed board to rework it let alone clean it.

Re: Single Ended Amps - Opinions

My take on the trend, higher voltage translates roughly to cleaner louder, generally useful to marketing regardless of whether it sounds better.

Re: #40 resistor choice

Nice looking build. I just read through the last many posts… I know it’s too late to be relevant, but with regard to cutting metal, I discovered using a circular saw with the blade in backwards worked amazingly well for cutting old corrugated metal roofing—cut through it smooth, like butter.
