#1 6B4G - The Resurrection Shuffle

Post by Cressy Snr »

Right!
After nearly a morning's going through my backups, I found the schematics on an old USB stick.

This is a project I can't realistically start until the new year, but the next two posts will show the audio and PSU circuits.

I'll have all the bits you have not got Steve..
Including 6b4g ..You would be much better off putting better valves in ( px4) excepting the better bass is likely to upset your ported speaker...

The tube manual is quite like a telephone book. The number of it perfect. It is useful to make it possible to speak with a girl. But we can't see her beautiful face from the telephone number

I have a pair of nice output transformers I bought from you a few years back ... You where the last to use them ☺
3.5k I think...

I'll borrow them if you don't mind Steve, maybe with a view to buying them back?

If I can start to get together some stuff, that'd be good. Those TXs would be ideal. I do however need to get on with the speakers first.

I have plenty of 6 and 9V transformers for heater supplies.The DC DHT supplies are proving elusive, but I know I have one somewhere. I saw it a few weeks ago.

could even sub in some SV572s

it was all due for ebay one Christmas to pay for the grandkids chrissy presents

just kidding about the bake off(I really do dislike that phrase)

I liked that 572b amp a lot Ed. Something about thoriated filaments really works.
Might have to haul the poor-man's Quasars over, at this rate.
