Nice, I'm planning to order the Aeteur on the 10th to pair with Glenn 300B, just the teak though and not the fancy black wood

I've heard like four different woods on the Auteur, they were all really terrific. Teak is a fantastic tone wood. I actually have a pair of teak cups on an old D2000 that I modded, and they really made those Denons sing!

After I finish UT's amp I will start building a EL3N amp for me.
It will be the same as @whirlwind amp but with craziness. All DH labs 99.99% pure silver wire in the audio paths.
I am not a wire person but figured I would go all out with this amp.

That's not crazy, you'll need Duelund CAST silver coupling caps and custom silver output transformers before you can approach lunacy! :)

I love the look of the teak wood.

Oh, are we taking pictures now? If anybody wants some really pretty pictures of their EL3N, you just feel free to send that my way anytime you like. :wink:

Ah ha. You are the man indeed for producing them. I don't find any nice pics of Glenn's OTL and EL3N amps on the internet. We need some nice and clear photos.

This one is quite good so credit to the one who took it but it's not the Glenn OTL 6 x 6BL7 amp I'm looking for. :)

This is quite good indeed but need to focus on the EL3N amp alone. This is Joe's better pictures. :beyersmile:

I am lazy these days. I shoot with my Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge camera. My Nikon has not been touched for a while. The smartphone camera is quite good though and convenient. :)

Yeah, there is a lot to be said for the convenience of a mobile phone cam over the endless tweakfest of dealing with lighting rigs, lenses, settings, handling large files, developing the shots in Lightroom and then retouching them in Photoshop. Shooting on a DSLR looks great, but it takes up a lot of time.

Previously I'd never liked the camera on the iPhones, but the iPhone 8+ camera (and I presume the X) is amazing. Also for video. My mate has the S7 and that also takes great photos. Amazing what these devices can do today. Seems a disservice to call them "phones".

Nothing like a professional photo shoot though. It's well worth the effort.

Here's another attempt by the S7 Edge. Not too shabby at all. :ksc75smile:

Yeah - gave up on my Nikon SLR - too complicated and bulky for me. I have an iPhone 6+ and it takes very good pictures.
The other day I called Canon customer service re a question about my ink jet printer. Among other things the rep told me to install their Canon app on my phone. Now I can take a picture and print it out right away, not even going near my printer.
Polaroid (remember??) - here I come!
