The Amp Garage

hope for the best,
prepare for the worst,
expect nothing.
to thine ownself be true;
do unto others as you would have them do unto you.
Don't Panic

Thanks for the help, fellas. I feel more confident about this build now. Thanks, Phil_S, for making some things a bit clearer for me.

and that, my friend, is what gets me out of bed every day.

C'mon, that's just plain dumb. If you knew there was a bullet with your name on it out there would you put your family in harm's way? That doesn't pass the "smell test". It probably isn't his call, anyway. It's simple math, less people in the line of fire are easier to protect, that's the Secret Se...

I have a customer who wants an amp with an output along the lines of a Bassman/Super -- basically a pair of fixed bias 6L6's. The beefiest PT I have at this time is a Hammond 273BX (350-0-350, DC ma 175). Rectifier will be a 5AR4, or possibly a 5U4; Pre/PI will not be more than three 12AX7's -- Does...

They did'nt mention it on CNN, but...i'll tell you why his wife and two kids kissed him and fucked off right away... It's called "Death Threaths" my friend and the C.I.A. is takin' it seriously... :roll: sure, I understand that part -- they had a serious WALL of bulletproof glass around him, for Pe...

When we give up that which makes us... us ... and when we start playin' their game by their rules... Well, if ya can't beat 'em... join 'em! :twisted: 'Cuz beyond that point the difference between us and them gets kinda blurry. Oh yeah. It's not a game. Don't think that, ever. Definitely not a game...

Does anybody else here find it rather creepy that Barry gave his acceptance speech ALONE onstage? Where was his family? His running mate? Seriously. To me it appeared strangely dictatorial.

They're fun to mess around with. For a few gigs I used a pair w/EL84's chugging along with a pair of 6v6's in my Valvetech head through a straight front 4x12. It was a very *HOT* sound to the point of almost being unstable. As for using them in a permanent setup, I'm gonna have to say, "uh, no thank...

www.stf-electronics.com has great kits at great prices. Pat Bunn (owner) also provides a step-by-step instruction book with his kits, plus he's really good at responding to emails if you get stuck.

"it is what it is"

Ahhhh :(, this used to be a nice place. hi billyz -- It still is. Nobody here is being disrespectful, unruly, rude or crass. This forum is here for us to talk about "Non-tube amp discussion to discuss music, girls, life, etc .". You are free to ignore this thread. Cheer up, dude! take care and have...

Barry Hussein has a lot of promises to keep... God help us...

shoot, you could probably couple the Bogner pre to the power/output section of a Deluxe Reverb and have a great sounding combo with 2x12's. (At least, that's what I'm contemplating, though I am leaning towards doing a 2x10 combo wth Eminence's) It would certainly be loud enough for most small and me...

this looks like it would be worth trying:
