KT88 are gorgeous tubes. I am waiting patiently for the amp to arrive and trying these tubes out.

Nice tubes. I'm curious how Woo Audio wire their c3g to 6sn7 for use in WA5 6sn7 slots. How do you intend to use that in UltimatE? You would need c3g to 6j5 adapter in UltimatE.

Couple months ago, you recommended adapters from Mrs X. I bought 2 pairs that can be used to both 6J5 and 6V6 sockets.

Your amp has been to more places than most people. Anchorage and Incheon, I want to go there.

Hey check it out. It is back and departed from Alaska. Somebody probably scanned the old bar code on the crate. According to UPS, I should receive it tomorrow 3/26/24.

Very pretty. Those are KR Audio 300B XLS? Twin rectifiers?

The gold transformers will go nicely on my Gold Ultimate.

Yup, KR's and a pair of early '60's Mullard CV-378 's (GZ-37).

@David A Silva I'm listening to your recommendation on Tidal - Sunken Condos by Donald Fagen. With c3gs and Philips Miniwatt EL34 metal base and Susvara. Meanwhile the replacement Mullard EL38 just arrived !

 

[UntilThen]

Oh well it's not the EL38. It's the water filters.

Do you need a special adapter for that?

 

[mordy]

But I'm not Freddie and I released my previous amps as I go along so the quota at any one time is 3 tube amps. This amp though caught my eye.

What are the neighbors going to say? - No headphone jack...
I'll bet that Eric knows Earle Weston; both are one man operations.

They do know one another.
