FS: P. Millett Hybrid Tube amp

Thread Starter 
I've decided to sell my P.Millett designed low voltage hybrid tube amp. Had fun building it, but now it's time to build something else. "http://pmillett.addr.com/hybrid_head.htm"



The amp was built with Cardas internal wire & RCA Jacks, and has an external HB24-1.2-A power supply in a nice looking case. I have also added a Neutric locking headphone jack since these pictures were taken.
More pictures are available upon request.

Included are 2 pair of tubes, 12FM6 & 12AE6A tubes, and all stock parts that I didn't use since I chassis mounted some of the components.

All I'm asking is what I have spent building it.
$230 shipped.

Oh Yeah,
I will send along the audioexpress issue that has the article about building the amp too.

I like the whole idea of the amp, down to the blue case and Cardas factor (though the placement of the tubes on one side seems odd). Perhaps you felt your amp was particularly suited to Senn 600s. Is there something about the design or implementation that makes it appropriate for those headphones?

Hi. The tubes are directly over their normal spot on the circuit board so the sockets and wires didn't interfere with the rest of the components.
Not sure if I understand your question completely, but I have ETY ER-4 headphones as well as Sennheiser 600's and both work just fine with this amp.

Allright,
I'll give it one more try at this other address.

actually... it's okay. i can see it now at the library computer. for some reason i can't access it at home.

anyway.... looks good. how does it work with low impedance cans?

got pictures of the internals?--i'd like to see how well everything was soldered. closer the better...

I think it's safe to say Todd is a pro at soldering.

Cardas wiring, metallic blue case with highlights, the headphones in question figuring prominently in your shot of the amp -- t'would seem you wished to pair this amp with the Senn 600 (and no, I don't mean exclusively). I was asking whether there were sonic enhancements (such as impedance) that might benefit the 600 in particular. (Hint: This could be a selling point, not a limitation.)

Oh I see.
No, nothing special about having the 600's inthe shot. That's just where I happen to store them.
