Lots of tubes this year. Fantastic creations, and fantastic sound.
1. Plenty of power (with a modest voltage rating)
2. nice pre-amp/headphone amp
3. fine little headphone system by one of our senior members. Tube amp kit from Bottlehead, Buffalo DAC, and music server. Just goes to show you, it's never to late to start, boys and girls!

Not to go un-noticed, Gary's LARGE setup.
Looks close to what im building right now, Pair of
An externally hosted image should be here but it was not working when we last tested it.
AutoTech Iwata-600
and a pair of 15" A&E TD15m Drivers into a nice 2 way setup Ported of course.
Nice.
Looks like good dispersion in the works. (btw, see post 95 for details of Gary's system).
Here's a picture of the gear in the Main Room:
On the far side is Rene's amplifier with 4 211 Triods with an output of around 50 wpc. The sign on the amp is incorrect, it's actually 1200 volts and it normally drives a pair of Magnapans.
In the middle is a Pre-amp/headphone amp that was recently finished and broken in. Seems to sound nice and is "very" quiet. I'll be listening to it as both a pre-amp and a Headphone Amp.
Both the amp and the pre-amp had separate Power Supplies mounted on a second Chassis (located under the table)
Closest is Rene's Oppo 105 deck.
This gear was used to drive most of the speakers during the day and sounded pretty nice.
Best Regards,

Yes, there's rather more to the story of Gary's system than the horn
I actually wish i had my video camera, i could have video tapped some of the stuff to actually show you what it's like to see your self in the mirror and have you think twice before and after !
