We like it...a lot! 

 What did your amp weigh in at? Kilograms or pounds, I'll take "First displayed." 

 
About 16lbs, I would say.

We had a houseful and 60 degrees for the meal, 7 hours later we have 3 inches of snow on the ground and the temp has dropped to 25 degrees....Looks like it is time to get the Christmas tree up..

 
Any left overs?

I'm guessing that special transformer isn't nearly as heavy as the normal one Glenn uses.  I think a lot of the weight of the OTL comes from that big tranny.

Glenn had it custom made for 230V and also to minimise any risk of damage during shipping.
 
He thought about everything and I got much more than I was hoping for.

Yes that is a special transformer made to go inside the chassis.But it has the same specs other then 115/230 primary.
and alot lighter it also has a lower magnetic field.
I have seen horrid things happen in shipping with heavy transformers when I worked for Harmon Kardon.
I seen Transformers rip off the chassis and also hole CD4 stereos break in half with 4 power transformers two on each side.
   The new transformers from a new vendor are bigger and heavier only difference is they are 115/230 primary. More costley
to ship bummer

SO I am trying a NIB Brimar 6SL7GT Black Base, Grey Plates, old style Ø getter.
 
Sade never sounded so good.

Just reading your description of the event has me already planning for tonight's session! 

 The current session is concluding in minutes, too late for the sultry Sade.

Don't start me reminiscing. Once saw her in concert four times in three weeks at three venues in-and-around LA with two dates taking each of them out twice. What a summer! 

 

[rosgr63]

NU 6SL7GT now on test and from Sade to The Crusaders.
 
Stronger low end but I prefer the Brimar with Sade as the mids are better than with the NU.

Congrats everyone! I've been so busy, I hadn't even noticed the thread blew through 1,000 posts.

My Brimar does female vocals well. Earlier this morning I was thinking of putting The Crusaders - Southern Comfort in tonight's rotation. Previously played "Scratch" (vinyl). Which of their work are you featuring?
 
Uh-oh! The sun came up...time for a quick four hour timeout! More from the Silent One late afternoon...
