Dsavitsk/Beezar Torpedo Build Thread

[FishHead]

Between Tunes, Caps, Headphomes and now Transformers I would hope to find the right combination eventually. I have been told it is the journey and not the destination which is important.

Safe travels!

Very exciting updates. I might ransack my Torpedo I for parts

In addition to being used for the T3, these will also be available for DIY use.

Can you share the specs and price?

They are 10K:300 with a center tap on the primary and a 32 Ohm tap on the secondary. Unless nickel jumps again, I think they are going to be $225/pair.

Didn't you do the steampunk one with the elevated tubes?

What is the DCR and how much power can they handle?

Yes, he did.  A magnificent build.

I'm guessing Doug is still running the Cinemag OPTs through the gauntlet. Any idea when the nickel will be ready for the plebs?

Yes, he did.  A magnificent build.

Thanks Tom, wouldn't be remotely possible without you guys and your EXTENSIVE efforts.
 
$225 seems pretty reasonable for the Cinemags. They're superbly made.

He estimated two weeks, but stuff like this can vary.

Meanwhile, I built another Torpedo III using the production PCB and the parts I'll be supplying with the kits. It's some of the best headphone listening I've had, even with the Edcors. I've spent several days going back through almost my entire music and headphone inventory for a re-listen. Even after all of that, my ears feel perfectly normal, which is actually unique in my experience.

I also documented the build, so I'll be working on web pages soon and maybe another build thread.

Thanks for the kind comments!
