crappy Technics 30W amp ,on best spks in the world.........
(spks are best for me ...)
The only "Pass" component that I have is a Pearl phonostage. I recently finished the MC card put together by Promithius and it is quite good! Three cheers for Promitius! There is a bit of hum in the left channel that I have yet to troubleshoot, but overall I am pretty happy. The rest of my system is as follows:
Digital: Squeeze Box 3 connected to a 300 gig hardrive packed with uncompressed wav files.
analog: Nottingham space dec with Ace-Space arm and Shelter 301 low output MC cart and PASS Pearl with MC card
Speakers: Eton 7-372 and accuton C23-6 MTM's with Cardas wire, hovland caps, Alpha-core inductors and mills resistors.
Preamp: Rogue Audio Magnum 66 LSR
Amp: ARC D-125 with 6550EH tubes
Cables: Kimber 8tc speaker, Cardas diy interconnects and belden diy power cords.

I've been listening to running water, very relaxing. ESL on Jam's A40s.
Just before the stormy weather hit the coastline, my timing still needs some work.

As far as I know Jam has not built an A-40.
How do you like it?

You want it to be called the Weingolf A40 from now on ?
Out of curiosity, how many mosfet A40-s have been built ?
I just realised the mosfet A40 is the first all-fet design i constructed, i'm really pleased with the set. (still need to have marble front plates made, my broken fingers set me back a couple of months again)
The total building costs of A-40s are modest because of the low rail voltages and low-cost parts. I rarely need more than the power the A-40s deliver, all in all it's a very relaxed sounding couple. One day i'll have to haul myself to putting together a set of original A-40s for comparison, no idea why i've never built Pass A40s.

I think there were atotal of 16 boards. Jam has one, Mark M has one. Mark G has one and I have one. Those are the four amps that I built. I sent a set of boards to you, Harry and Brian D. I am not sure who has the other boards.
I had a chance to liste to Panelheads LM3886 amp. It was much better than I expected.

The Penaso/Twisted Pear boards, right ?
Maybe you like some No-Pass-eran stickers ?
