Wanted: DIY amplifier builder with experience. I need a 0.7 ohm stable amplifier - Page 4

jacco vermeulen · 12th May 2005, 04:05 PM

FTR: in the stone age a great number of people combined Decca and Technics TH400 ribbon tweeters with class A amplifiers, be it solid state or tube.

The only thing i'd like to discuss is why everytime i see Variac i am thinking grilled piglet, Chinese style, and i start to drool !

Some will probably will sound better than others to you.

I suppose that is true.... amps certainly sound different... but better or not I dunno

I do plan to test some choices out

Where in NC do you live? There is quite a bit of DIY activity in central NC and even some guys into ribbons that you could discuss your project with.

Okay, that is good.

I know a lot of the audio folks in the RTP area but no one in the Charlotte area although I know that there is also quite a bit of activity there and points west. We have meetings in this area from time to time so drop me a note and I'll make sure that you get on the notification list.
