Default FINALLY!

It occurred to me recently that it has been nearly a year to the day since I first posted looking for an alternate source for the Millett Hybrid PCBs. And until today I've never built one for myself . I had a mostly finished amp that'd I started recently for no real reason other than the fact that I still have enough parts kicking around. So I set out earlier this week to finally build myself a Millett, even if it won't be the one that I end up with permanently, here are the results.









I like to think of it as pretty much as maxed a configuration that you can build in the smallest possible box. It runs a 24V AC wallwart into a TREAD running 28V DC into the amp. From there you've got all Cerafine and Silmic II caps feeding Tung Sol 12FK6's and diamond buffers all controlled by an alps pot. All housed in a hammond 1455T1602 (6.3 x 6.3 x 2.1") case. Sounds really good so far, and I think looks ok too.
