Komet K60 or Concord Layout
Does anyone have a Concorde layout/schematic/photos available?
of course, i've owned 3 of the Bubinga cabinet Komet LTD, but never bothered to take on out of the cabinet long enough to take some hi-res images or dray up a layout - i know = amp geek fail!!!
help - these will nOT be published - but only used to build my own person clone that will never go up for sale!

Re: Komet K60 or Concord Layout
Concorde schematic, no layout but have lots of photos.
EDIT I have lots of K60 photos but very few Concorde photos and the photo zip files that used to be on Ampgarage are gone?

Of course this will be your personal clone.
Its not like your that guy from Michigan selling 4k junk with absolutely horrendous solder joints on the back of the pots and Electrolytics
Yep, your going to delete your facebook photos now

The Concorde is similar to the Komet, but the unused triode is used as a cathode follower. The Concorde has a reputation for being a rock amp.

Re: Komet K60 or Concord Layout
What's the topology of the amp?
Gain/TS/Recovery/Gain/Cathode Follower?
Or is the TS feed by the Cathode Follower?
Pre/post gain?
Looks like that cathode follower could really be anywhere

Re: Komet K60 or Concord Layout
It's the first one, the cathode follower is after the third stage.

Allyn came up with a mod to make the vintage/fast switch into a foot switch.

Yeah I got a kit from Dana Hall complete with PS but never built the Concorde yet.

Better than the real thing!
It has switching and VVR3 in it.

On a side note, I wasn't too hip on the VVR after a while. I had to replace a few chips on production amps. Could have been a bad run of chips, but I just removed the VVR on the ones I built eventually. The footswitch however, works awesome!!! Thanks to Dana Hall and Mark Huss who's help put together the first working prototype then Dana and I had boards made. I've never had one fail!
Re: Komet K60 or Concord Layout
Does the VVR work well on Express amps Allyn?
While you're here, how does the Express, K60 and Concorde compare?
I figure the Concorde is more of a rock amp?

Re: Komet K60 or Concord Layout
I didn't like VVR on an Express. At least it was not useable enough to knock some power.
A PPIMV might work better.

Re: Komet K60 or Concord Layout
So, just so I am understanding this a little better:
The cathode follower is being fed by the cold clipping stage, and CF output is going into PI input?

Re: Komet K60 or Concord Layout
What power supply node is the CF being fed from? 3rd gain stage?
