#102 inspired project completed. Finally.
Hi all, hope you’re well.
I finished my first #102 inspired project. Finally all the components are ready.
I sticked to Tony’s schematic with slight omissions like:
- selfwound transformers
- selfmade chassis out of 1/8" air grade aluminum
- selfmade boards out of NOS 70s material
- selfmade head shell out of spruce lumber core
- speaker cab out of proper mahogany lumber core with 80s EVM12L
I even managed to find NOS Ernie Ball amp handle.
Voltages are:
B+1 455
B+2 454
B+3 434
B+4 329
B+5 321
V1a 194
V1b 195
V2a 198
V2b 206
PI pin6 288
PI pin1 283

Oh wow that looks outstanding! Well done! You did the transformer wining yourself? I'd love detail on that.

Woah! You built the speaker cab out of hardwood and then covered it?!? Beautiful, anyway!

Looks amazing!
Re: #102 inspired project completed. Finally.
Thanks, Phil. My friend does the transformers. He looks for old used transformers of appropriate size, then disassembles them, utilizing mainly steel parts and rewinds them using NOS Soviet era wire. It’s copper double insulation (silk and lacquer) wire.pompeiisneaks wrote: ↑Mon Feb 11, 2019 4:53 pm Oh wow that looks outstanding! Well done! You did the transformer wining yourself?
