Thanks Glenn. I told you I was dumb. Lucky I have you to build my amp.
After consulting with Stavros, I have decided to call my amp "Φως Αποκάλυψις", which I believe means "Light of Revelation". I think in classical Greek it is pronounced something like "Fose Apocaloopsis".
Bought NOS Lorenz C3G tubes yesterday for about $40 for the pair. Seemed reasonable to me. Looking forward to trying them out. Is it difficult to remove the shield?
Glenn - My amp won't have any rectifier tubes, will it (as I am getting Lundahl transformer)? I don't mind either way as you know what is best/possible. Just want to keep my eyes peeled for decent prices on the required tubes.
Warm regards
Nathan
Any advantage to take the C3g metal cap off or leave it on??
And I would add, it doesn't even put on much of a light show with the cans removed. Not worth the trouble in my opinion. And like Glenn says, it was designed to provide 10,000 hours of service inside those little metal cans, so my thinking is it is best to leave well enough alone.
Sorry. Stupid Nathan strikes again.
Goodbye.
The last amp Glenn gave me is named GRETA Glenn-R-Experimental-Tube-Amp.
I need to set it up soon.
Steven I know I am very very bad for not doing it sooner.............sorry
