This is a brand new custom build Bottlehead Crack.
It has to go as I need more room for future amp builds.
It's a completely build Crack (finished last week) with Speedball and all well known possible upgrades (and many less frequent!).
The special feature of this build is a custom socket for the 6SN7 driver tube. With the option to perfectly bias an ECC32 driver via a switch on the CCS.
The wood base has no finish on it as of now. So the future buyer can do as he/she pleases.
Also the Bottlehead badge and feet have yet to be placed.
Personally really enjoy it with both HD800 and ZMF Verite open.
The manual for both kits (Crack / Speedball) is included in the sale.
The build is now for 230V European standard voltage. But can be changed to your local needs upon request.
Features of this build (and part (sometimes shipping) costs):
- Crack + badge + Speedball (575€ with import duties and shipping)
- Speedball custom switchable driver board upgrade (15€)
- Schottky diode rectifier bridge upgrade(20€)
- Choke in powersupply upgrade (50€)
- Silver plated solid core copper wiring upgrade (25€)
- DACT type stepped 100K volume pot with FAQ #3 upgrade (40€).
- Bakelite black gold plated tube sockets upgrade (30€)
- Resistors upgrade with Vishay Dale on critical spots (10€)
- Upgrade last cap in powersupply (7€)
- Audyn QS 100uf polypropylene film output capacitors upgrade (150€)
- Black Hammerite spray (15€)
Total costs 937€ for this build for just parts / shipping.
The following eight good/NOS tubes are included:
All tubes are tested good/NOS results and sound good when in use.
Total value >250€
6SN7GT:
- 6SN7GTB National NOS pair (pictured)
- RCA 6SN7GT grey plate
- RCA VT231 black glass
6080:

Price is only 999€ for the amp with tubes! I’ll take the PayPal fee, you pay the shipping.

Warranty? No. But I'll step up with any issues.
