Here's pictures of my first tube.. well, hybrid amp.
Sijosae over on headwize designed it... it runs on as low as 24 vdc and can use either a 6922, or the mini 6111 tube I chose, and is really inexpensive.. as in <$70
I'm loving the sound.. it's hard to describe. Yes, it has output capacitors (1000uf!), it has a $4 panasonic pot, but yet it sounds better to my ears than my gilmore.
Oh, the front panel was inspired by Bassivus' WNA amp on page 9 of this thread
Apparently one of the amps Sijosae built cost him, in Korea, $16 USD!
Headwize is down right now (bandwidth exceeded..), but it was a really cool thread.
I hope this amp becomes popular, because I think it''s really innovative, and I would reccomend it to any diy newbies

Wow, sounds cool, will have to check it out when headwize is back.
