You bet Ya ! If no one steps forward for the fin types you can call me dibs for all of them.
Thanks Troy.

btw, your GC is still a beaut.


Well thanks..

I am about to gut it and drop in Zang's (digi01) BPA200 boards in it.

I will make a custom wooden "stand or platform" for the amp that will contain the transformer, rectifier and some caps. The connecting wire will = the resistor, and another few caps in the amp chassis for a 2 box CRC power supply and amp.

It will still be a generic all purpose test amp. 😀 My Krell clone, Hypex UcD180 AD and Mauro Rev_C are still my references now that I have sold the Rowland 🙁 :bawling:. I miss it, but it was time to try something else. I don't know that I will ever better it though...

Ok i`m in for 1, maybe 2 of these,please🙂


Well you are the third to the party. Jacco gets the BIG heavy one, Konst gets to pick his, and you get the left overs if you still want it after seeing the pictures. Don't let that scare you, they all look like "regular" heatsinks but once the pictures are posted you may, or may not, decide it is worth shipping accross the big pond.

sold the Rowland

Model 2, right ?

I'm only familiar with the predecessor of the 2, the model 5.
(still from the time that it was Rowland Research, instead of JRDG)
The model 2 was a total symmetrical design, i gathered, not many of those around. Ever taken a peek to see which output devices were chosen for the Model 2 by Mr Rowland ?

If you take a look at the Mosfet A-40 thread on the NP forum you'll see a picture of one of the double decker cases i made for the amps. The bottom sections are lined with copper foil. Overhere a nationwide bookstore that also carries office utensils sells the copper foil by the sheet(tip posted by someone here on diyA.) I used copper foil also on the wooden cases i tried for the GCs before i stuffed them in steel ones. Maybe an idea for your woody PS Platforms.

You're definite Lone Star grade, Troy.
 
I have popped the top to see what I could "upgrade" and closed it disapointed and elated.

Disapointed that I could not find ANYTHING I would do better, and elated that it was so well designed and made.

But no, I did not check the output device type...

Well I'm actually a coon *** from Louisiana :bigeyes: , but I've been in the Big D for 5 yrs... It's kinda starting to rub off on me.
 
Ok, I have gotten some emails regarding the Krellbatches (no jokes that we don't need no stinkin' badges please 😀 )

My thought is that people that are intrested should just post here for now so we get an overview on how many we are. And if we decide that we are to few then I'll give all intrested means to contact and buy them yourselves. It will probanly cost a little more thou.

Does that sound OK?
 
I would like two of the small size if you are willing to ship to the USA.

Ofcourse, I'll ship wherever you want since you are paying for it. Then if there's some more from each country I can ship everything to one adress to save money on shipping for you. All up to you how you want it.

Btw
The sizes can be a subject of change, yet again up to you. They can be made smaller or larger but I'm aiming for one or two sizes. The small one is according to me really nice but the big one COULD be a wee bit smaller. But that's a later poblem.
