YAA! (Yet Another Aleph) Complete

relder · 6th November 2003, 03:08 AM

I finally finished my Aleph 30+ in time for AZ DIY 2003 last weekend.

Russ took some more pictures at the event here: http://community.webshots.com/album/98271869gsHdnS

You can see it sitting on one of the speaker stands for better convection

Guts. Will trim those tranny wires now that I know there's no mechanical hum with the trannys that close together.

My first attempt at a homebrew PCB. Low current stuff here, the rest is point-to-point. Pretty much stock Aleph, except 30V rails. Puts out 47 watts if I calculated correctly (8 ohms)

First mono power up, sounds as good as any unbaffled 850146 sitting on the floor has any right to.

And no smoke!

Thanks for the pics!
you just built yourself a "keeper".....give us any other input on the amp as for myself I would like to know!

I like it,
the PCB looks very well thought out and the chassis looks great!

Thanks. We ran it through a few of those speakers and sounded quite nice. Had been using an Adcom amp just before and Norah Jones seemed to become a bit warmer and you could seem to hear some more of the little details. Later listening to Robert Lucas on Russ' MTMs a little too loud it had all the dynamics I could seem to want, no lack of power. Worst thing is, I have maddog doubting his tube gear.
