Pretty wood!
Wait, it's a solid state amp? Are the tubes decoration or is it a hybrid?

Great looking amp. Can we have shots from underneath as well? I am really interested to see that stand (or what looks like a stand).

It's a Millett "Starving Student" hybrid amp.

That base looks like a pair of black Aluminum drawer pulls. Am I right?

Looks great! Really like the wood texture...

You refer to beta 22, so I guess the tubes are there just for the bling-factor...

Thanks Smeggy!

krmathis - I think he was referring to my cookie tin/beta 22 in the previous post.

 

[smeggy]

Yeah, it was oneplustwo's awesome beta I was referring to.

Mine is a Millet Starving Student hybrid so yes, actual tubey goodness along with sexy mosfets

The 'feet' are steel door or drawer handles from Lowes, old pc heatsink and a rat shack project box with some wood bits.

I don't see your measuring hair anywhere on the MH Starving Smeggy, so I can only conclude this photo was shooped.

 

[smeggy]

Oh no, I've been rumbled!!

erm, it's on the other side, honest!

It is? Oh, well sorry. I didn't read that. Where did he state that?
I've been wanting to build those for the longest time, but never got the parts.

 

[smeggy]

My bad, I was being lazy in my post with descriptions

 

[linuxworks]

this is going to be in some kind of audio gear, soon. perhaps my preamp. not sure yet. but I did build it and it IS going to be controlling some audio gear, so here 'tis:

and a proof screen shot, showing that this module really is connected on my network and responds to ping as well as simple web 'get' requests:

anyone here have an IP-connected preamp? (anyone? anyone? bueuller? anyone?)

I may soon have one. web-connected volume control and input selector.

sounds crazy, but that never stopped anyone before (bwahahaha!).

also, notice that I'm using panasonic FM caps there, on the green board

5-cent caps were spec'd but I only had these in my parts box, so in they went.
