Dsavitsk/Beezar Torpedo Build Thread

Dsavitsk/Beezar Torpedo Build Thread
I replaced the tubes today with ge 5844s and I can't hear any hum without the top cover and the impedance switch at low. At high I can hear it but it is low. Low enough to where I can kinda hear it throughout the range of the pot with no source. With an iPhone as source, it is there but I can't...- crappyjones123

Finished the build today. Powered on with no issues. Playing some tunes right now but I have a bad case of the hum with hd650s :(. Persists with ibuds as well. Just a constant volume hum that stays even with music playing. I have the a/c unit just on the other side of the door so it's not...- crappyjones123

any thoughts on a rotring 600 fountain pen? i have 2 rotring 600 pencils and own a bunch of geometry gear from them. the older very simple hexagonal aesthetics look the best to me. i dont like fancy woods or crazy pictures on pens/pencils. being a math student, for the past 7 years i have almost...- crappyjones123
