My preferences are shifting towards SS/analytical so it’s time for a new home.
Crack + Speedball + Solen output caps + power supply shunt + cree diode rectifier bridge + Alps pot + 4 pin XLR plug (for balanced headphone cables) + shielded case + copper shield between PSU and signal electronics + 1% resistors where possible + multiple tubes + Herbies tube dampers. There are two small holes drilled in the side of the case and three on the back - these are from mounting various mods that ended up not making a useful difference in sound.
Tubes are:
1X GE 6080 (came stock with Crack) ~ 30 hours use.
1X Sylvania 6080 ~ 20 hours use.
2X Svetlana 6N13S - one has ~ 15 hours use, the other has zero use.
1X RCA 12AU7 ~ 20 hours use.
2X Tung Sol 12AU7WA - one has ~ 10 hours use, the other has zero use.
1X Stock tube that came with Crack (writing is rubbed off so not sure what it is) ~ 30 hours use.
If you’re using single ended HP cables, you can get a 4 pin XLR to TRS plug.
Will be packed and shipped with care, tracking and, insurance.
Yup. The only other thing that can be done is to use bypass caps but I’ve seen some evidence that they effect timing (the bypass cap maybe quicker or slower to discharge than the other cap) so I never bothered with them.
WTF?!?! No one has bought this yet? Guys, this is a very fair price for what is a genuine endgame amp. No more fun for the price can be had than with a speedball crack with all the fixins’.
