The "good old days"

I built up JLH's balanced discrete amp. I did combine it with a natural cross feed. It sounds great with my new Senn HD650. I used some old BC414/416, polypropylene caps und Panasonic OS-Cons. It is worth to try this little circuit. The only problem is to obtain the low resistance pot (4,7k). Next week I will compare it to the Stoopid.

Happy New Year to all DIY's.

And George Briggs books about loudspeakers? OMG! These books is very informative and very popular! And Briggs have writed these in 1950!

I like the paragraph who Briggs speak about Baffles.

The JHL Class-A is a very good amplifier. Me and a friend has mouted a JHL 10w in 1 or 2 years ago. The sound is very clean. I thinking the JHL design is the best design who I see.

Thanks.

My first kit was a Heathkit receiver (way back when). Believe it or not it still survives. I gave it to my cousin and he still uses it!

I built that preamp from kit form, and it was my primary audio system for at least ten years.

I upgraded the regulated +/- 15V power supply within the first year, and kept spraying the switch contacts every month since they were so prone to oxidation.
