Re: Finished and working - 12 valve all DHT PP 26-71a-45
I look forward to bringing it to the next meet. I'll need some notice to book the roadies ... I can only hope it's as good as the one I built for Geoff - that makes a pair of Lowther DX4s in bog standard cabs sound SPECTACULAR ! I'd love to hear this driving Steve's superb speakers from the last mee...

Re: Finished and working - 12 valve all DHT PP 26-71a-45
HAHA true. You should try turning it over ! It sits on industrial heavy duty runners in my cupboard, with the power supply next to it. I think the amp is about 20Kgs and the PSU about 15kgs. Andrews DC boards are the only silicon in there. The DC boards for the 71A are mounted inside the amp, they a...

Re: Finished and working - 12 valve all DHT PP 26-71a-45
Well my own amp build has turned out to be a long hard slog, with hours stolen here and there between work. Last lap now, I thought Andrew might like this shot showing the first 2 of his 12 DC boards in the amp, on its back being wired. Since this photo the next 2 have gone in and all four have been...

Re: SRA/VTA adjustment and tube distortion
If you go from 0.38% to 0.29%, isn't that a 25% improvement?

Re: Yorkshire Hi-Fi Club
It's touch and go whether my amp will be completed in time, but I'd love to bring it along if possible.
Very old school design. By which I mean heavy.

Re: Yorkshire Hi-Fi Club
Having not been to one of these before, what's the format? Do people bring along kit for demo & comment?

Re: DHT Heater using VCCS - PCB or Kit (Possible Group buy)
I have some boards from Andrew (thanks) and will be putting in an order soon for components (after I check what I have in stock).
Anyone need any of the components for the boards? I doubt there will be enough interest to make any price difference but you never know.

Re: Wanted: 6SN7 Tubes.
I have quite a lot of both 6SN7 and 6SL7, including the nice red RCA base ones (called "rocket valves" I believe as they were used in nuclear missiles ? urban myth ?) I'm quite happy to send a bunch to a fellow DIYer - try them and keep the ones you like, send the rest back. Pay postage an...

Re: PCL86 SE Ultralinear Monos
Yes I was having a rummage last night searching for my stock supplies of comps - no B9A sockets! Used 'em all on the EL84 push-pull ... Also, was sure I had a couple of spare Cosmos Tocos pots, but blessed if I can see 'em. But got an eBay order out, + the sockets. I have lots of spare B9A sockets....

Are the details in the thread? Do I need to get added to a list?

Re: The Audio-Talk Cycling thread.
I really need to get back on the bike. Haven't touched it this year, mostly due to hifi building!
Perhaps I'll cycle to the next Owston - but not if I'm taking my new amp which I'm expecting to weigh in at around 20kg (the PSU around the same). Perhaps some sort of trolley arrangement...
