OK, don't laugh, but not only does this look cool, but sounds quite nice too. Its a wooden Salad bowl from Crate and Barrel that I made into a preamp.
A pair of 6SN7 Tubes, and a nice Hammond power Tranny. Also has LED Bais.
The pre comes with both a 6X5 rectifier and a plug in SS rectifier (FWBR 1N4007 x 4), so you can decide which is best. Has DC on heaters.
The B+ is around 275V and it is a simple plate / cathode follower circuit. Nice caps too.
The bottom is open, so caution around kids / animals.
How's $275?
I actually have another identical wooden bowl that matches the pre available too for a matching amp...These would look pretty cool next to one of those IKEA wooden Salad Bowl Speakers...
