Post pics of your builds.... - Page 364

That is very nice. Is that a stock case, or did you have it machined?

Oh my goodness, ZK. Oh. My. Goodness.

You guys are much too kind. It's so rewarding to read all your nice compliments.

THANK YOU!

Grawk, he carved it from wood and build from scratch, the silver is metallic paint I think.

@zkool448: That is stunning. Just, wow.

Beautiful, zkool!
Is that aluminum, or painstakingly thorough prep on MDF?
Amazing craftsmanship, but that's stating the obvious.

people can tell when they see visually stunning AND well conceived work.

you got both right

Thanks for posting! Any chance of some videos?

its a stereo amp, it can't do 5.1.

oh, wait. you didn't mean that.

nevermind.

No stock case for sure, he talks about techniques, etc here.
So how about going into production for some of your gorgeous amps? Or opening a headamp art studio or something.. I kid, I kid.

Here are some pictures of a build I just finished. It is a MAD Ear + HD version I built from scratch using the schematics generously provided by Dr. Peppard. The amplifier section is exactly the same as an Ear + HD or Super, operating at roughly the same voltages as the Super. The PS is different than the Super however. It is full wave rectified by a 5AR4 or 5U4G tube and uses a choke instead of a resistor in the second stage. Also, the last filter stage is separated in right and left channels. Finally, it uses AC instead of DC for the tube heaters.

Although it's too early to compare the sound to my B22, so far it sounds great.

looks superb

zkool, I think you can safely update your signature.

That is no longer "casework in progress"!

Amazing work. Well done indeed!

jk

The coolest thing: it's MDF! Great work as usual Joel, enjoy your vacation!

Just finished a few Denon DVD-2900 mods. Only listening SE right now, as I sorta made a bit of a mistake and ordered the wrong XLR jacks. Still sounds pretty awesome to me.
