The Amp Garage

According to the litterature, the way to go seems to minimize the length of the small signal grounds. The rest seems far less consensual - notably HAD's reported champ layout - see http://ampgarage.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=25599 http://ampgarage.com/forum/download/file.php?id=36562&mode=view do...

Indeed (...) but beside the (due) homage, there might be a temptation for some resellers

Thx for the idea!

PS : your amp builds are truely amazing!

Am I the only one to feel that this amp will have a huge amount of peers - with dubious stories and many (many) zeros on the price tag, when considering all the builds (here) with the explicit mention of Dumble's name on them?

My bad :oops: It looks like the GZ34 pulls out more voltage - as per https://robrobinette.com/How_The_5E3_Deluxe_Works.htm - hence giving the expected voltages by itself, right? So, normally I should be done with almost any (eg : Hammond from Tube-Town) replacement transformer capable of producing r...

Thanks for the video. I am (even more) full of envy, now! My main concern is finding the right power transformer, here, in France, without the cost of having one shipped from the US... :? (... & I am not sure at how a diode rectified one would sound.) You do get the right voltages (~400V B+) on your...

Oh yes, I should have mentionned speaker models, also - but I feel like I am going to have hard times finding the information back.

One more note - assuming Thiele parameters were the same, as a side note - the amp was reportedly not a Dumble, and not a clone either - so maybe this can explain

I just found the related video on Youtube. Back there I felt I had to reply to Charlie Wilson - mostly - just because I do appreciate his commitment to the community. I met two pathological liars in my life. Believe me or not, but I have been mystified (for sure) by the same rationale (it's to goofy...
