Love the clean minimalist look.
 
What is the size of the LED hole you used and is the LED visible in the daylight?

Thank you!
 
The LED is visible in the daylight, the hole is 1mm at the front and 5mm at the back of the front panel.

That looks really cool. Did you drill those holes yourself or did you have some custom paneling company do it?

Finaly received replacement for lm317 as ccs in my amp - two heatsink mounted Caddock mp930 20ohm 30w non-inductive power film resistors in to220 package. No modification was needed, it fits perfectly. Awesome parts.

A freshly completed Dynaco ST-70


 
 
 

 
 
 

 
 



The kit is from Bob Latino of Tubes4HiFi. I snuck in a few little upgrades too, including:

Teflon Tube Sockets and PCBs
Kimber TCSS wiring
Cardas RCAs / Binding Posts / Input wire
Kiwame / Takman Resistors
Mundorf Coupling Caps
Nichicon 100uF Electrolytics
Pilot light
Teflon solder strip for pentode / triode switch wiring
Heavy Duty On/Off Switch
Custom brass input and name labels
IEC Plug

The tube compliment is Sylvania JAN input tubes, Winged C output tubes and Sovtek rectifier.


One thing I realized during this build is that 16 gauge stainless steel is a b*tch difficult to work with Other that that, it was a fairly easy build and a nice recommendable kit. The sound is lush and very engaging 

amazing.  Ive got a Pas3 would love to have a ST70 accompany it one day.  Great looking work.

OMG!  Please tell me you aren't "testing" with HD800's!  You've got balls of steel!

FallenAngel, when I saw this pic, I swear to god I didn't see your post but I said to myself the exact same thing, minus the OMG part. :O

HiGHFLYiN9 that amp looks awesome! Have you considered adding like a hexagon steel net over the exposed pcb (in the same colour as the enclosure or black). Don't get me wrong I do love your design it was just a thought.

absolutely gorgeous!  almost has a steampunk look about it with some guts on display like that

My last build ongoing, a A47. Thanks Mullet, for your advises.

Thanks I have seen that look, Will Vincent, who restores Dynacos, does that.
 

 
I'm not sure that it adds or detracts from the almost trademark dynaco exposed PCB, that's why I hadn't pursued it, but it may be worth trying down the line
