MiWi said:There are some very nice tube-amps around here.
Very inspiring.
Couldn´t resist to build one by myself.
It´s the "triodino" 2A3 design.
Hi Michael!
looks great!
Real heavy, you can see it is made out of real stuff...
do you have the diagram somewhere?
cheers

A+ and B+ are interchangend in some plans !
Did some changes:
DC Heating of the 6SN7 (my horn are quite sensible, round 110dB/W/M) - drop dead quiet now.
And added the meter, which can be switched between the two 2A3.
I have outputtransformers with windings for 8 and 16Ohm for the 16Ohm compressiondrivers in my horns. (jre electronic)

Whoah! That is a sexy tube, where'd you get it?
Thankyou Steve Bench
Hi All
The first project I made I thought I had to use all the best quality components black gates etc this one I used apart from the spragues , components from farnell which I assume are good quality industrial components (no boutique stuff ) and was very pleased with the result . Apart from a little bit of hiss from the tweeters (EV T35b ) which are quite old and only audible with no volume and using AC on the heaters it sounds very clean . Thank you Steve Bench for your site it helped people like me who are electrically inept to have good sound . If you want a tube crossover which to my ears doesn't seem to add to the sound I can recommend this one .

a guitar amp i built for a friend - a 10W SE High Octane from http://ax84.com/

- DIY aluminum chassis and boards.
- variable cathode bias pot with RCAs for the test points.
- paralleled octal tube socket to roll a variety of PTs other than the EL84.
- DC supply for filaments and LEDs. i intentionally dimmed the pot LEDs compared to the Standby and Power LEDs so that my friend can decide how bright he wants them.
my friend runs a CNC machine at a cabinet/mill and will be enclosing it in a proper cab made out of birds eye maple and sapele, with an acrylic window to show off the blue tubes. i think we're going to name it "SaFire".

Why don't you also post your own amps photos George ?
