   Will not that i'am competing with you but here is my plan for the SEX amp if i'am comfortable enough to replace all the resistors i will be replacing them too(not that something is wrong with those stock resistors i just don't like how i installed them)They will be replaced with PRP,SHINKOH and TKD resistors then replace the CAPS and replace the C4S that i screwed up.There is no competitions here because clearly i can't compete with your building ability.Sure i will post some pictures as soon as i'am done so wish me luck i will need a lot of luck.

 
LOL. No competition either way - it's all about different people doing it in different ways

We should move this to the other thread as this is more of a dedicated Crack thread. Come over here for some pics of my output cap installation in the S.E.X.: http://www.head-fi.org/t/683012/bottlehead-amplifier-discussion-comparison-thread-crack-sex-mainline/930#post_11084335

It's a challenge. I'm bypassing my 1.5uFs soon so will post some pics in the Bottlehead Comparison thread then if that helps at all.

 
The Ampohms in the Sex are working even better with the Teflon bypass really pleased with the results so far. I keep meaning to install the impedance switches but enjoying the music keeps getting in the way!

Will you should stop the music for few minutes and do the C4S,I can't listened to mine without the C4S.

Anyone have any idea regarding Speedball shipping? Just ordered the kit on Black Friday and it notified me that the current orders were only shipped through 10/23.  I know this kinda thing is standard for Bottlehead but the 10/23 date is about 2 weeks behind other kits (most had shipped since ordered in mid Nov.).  I was hoping to get this in time for my birthday in early Jan.   
 
Thanks everyone!

How are you getting on with the Philips E80CC paired with the GEC round base its one of my favourite combinations but have only tried the E80cc that have the holes in plate sides?

 you nailed it E80cc Phillips or TunSol /GEC  is my favorite combo ,I also acquire  Mullard  E80cc but I still prefer Phillips most of the time ,orange globe gets a lot of action as well 
P.S. E80cc suits crack like no other, time after time .
