Does that mean he's still working/ tweaking the added extra tubes & caps? Or is there a delay with the faceplate guy?

Edit: Sorry, don't mean to pry. It's that I know my own McAlister custom job won't be ready for awhile and yours is just so close!

Indeed it is and I would also suppose that the wait will be worth it.

That faceplate guy needs a smack, he is holding up my amp!

Well it's Thursday morning, so I'm wishing you good luck on taking possession of your new baby!

 

[philodox]

Thanks... he was supposed to call yesterday, and didn't. I'm going to try him again this morning.

Philodox, PLEASE POST PICS OF THIS TUBE MONSTROSITY!!

And congratulations on finally getting this amp (well, getting it hopefully tonight). I know you've spent quite a lot of time and money searching for the best combination, and glad to hear that you finally got it. You gotta post some impressions about it after you've had a good listen!

Well did you reach him by phone? What's the word big bird?

Yeah, update us! We're trying to live vicariously through you here.

He's either too busy playing with his new toy or he's too depressed to reply. It couldn't be anything as silly as having a life.

Its funny, but that is what it was... I had tons of things to do today and didn't get in until later on. Unfortunately the amp did not arrive today, but it will be delivered to me tomorrow. The last time we talked, I told Peter to just mount the stuff on the chassis directly if there were any more faceplate problems... but it will be a big hassle to add it at a later date and I respect his decision. After all the work he has put into this amp I am sure it will be amazing. The anticipation is absolutely killing me though.

Looking forward to seeing possible pics later today of your new build Jay! You do own a camera, don't you? Otherwise, I guess there will be plenty of hero shots on Saturday!

 

[swt61]

Jay will this thing fit into your rack? Or is it too wide? I discovered something at the Austin meet (in the audio shop that hosted us) that I feel I can improve on, and am itchin' to make a prototype.

Did that sound cryptic and secretive? Good that's what I wanted.

Get out your Shirley Temple decoder rings boys and girls.

Kev - Yeah, I've got a camera and will definately take some pics tonight.

Oh man, that sounds interesting.

I doubt it is going to fit 'in' my rack. Was planning on putting it on top... maybe trying to get a stone slab or something to rest it on later.

You're falling into my trap perfectly.
