Here's my bottom!!

The view of my stereo JEL 300b.

Love the sound, great for voices, the James even have some bottom.

Single ended pure class A, experimented 2 years ago. 50W output, 200W consumption, brilliant sound, flat from 10 Hz to 200 KHz. You may see a white blower from microwave beneath the heatsink, once I forgot to switch it on and got output FET unsoldered... ;)
A tube is from TV, Compactron with a high mu triode inside and a power pentode, I connected it as a triode.

Yes he did :yes: but he ain't saying what it's all about :no:

I feel like getting all ape like and jumping around the base of it...Also Sprach Zarathustra...getting louder...oo oo oo.

Nothing special inside, just a power supply to generate heat, plus some 8 NPN transistors to make temperature independent of sound volume, plus some 8 FET repeaters to heat the heatsink more, and couple of double triodes with really red hot cathodes and filaments. Also, it has couple of magic eyes, since it replaces a fireplace it need to have something to look at... :rolleyes:
