Pictures of your diy Pass amplifier

I inserted my BTSB Buffer with 6dB additional gain between the Iron Pre and the BOO Amp. More useable volume range now.

you can insert additional repeater as autoformer in between Iron Pre and follower amp

maybe you'll like it, maybe not ....... it'll result in some color

Edcor, Jensen, Cinemag - if you have a pair handy

Indeed, that an interesting option, thanks. Transformer gain is one thing I’ve yet to play with (other than the stock VFET SE input). I do not have any handy.

I just heard something new in a song I hadn’t noticed before. So I guess all is going well. Extra layering of ancillary instruments in a track of The Good, the Bad, and the Queen. I am thrilled by such experiences.

I believe there is some of that in Iron Pre

Ha! Of course. The little critters are popping up all over.

At my place when those kinds of things happen it ends like this

And lately it happens very often

It took me so long to get this done that Gianluca changed the heatsink rails at Modushop in the time since I started with this amp. My heat spreaders no longer fit, so I improvised with spacers. The chassis is now is a Tie-Fighter.

You might consider a nice anodized aluminum strip from McMaster-Carr to fill that gap.

Nice to hear someone else is building during the summer months!

I kinda like the gap.

I could always swap rails with one of my older Modushop chassis… But that’s gonna have to wait until I’m done living with this splendid amplifier in the main system.

The newest amp is always the best!
