OMG
What planet is this tube gear from.........incedible looking designs
that will cause real double take, look at the size of that main tube! (would make Dr Frankenstien jealous)

Tube Stuff

 

[dariusf]

WOW, allot of cool stuff, the huge tube amp is out of this world

check out the headphones on the wall under the Jim Hagerman of Hagerman Technology pictures

I can only imagine what that beastie would look like with the lights dimmed............ooohhhhhhhh aaaaaaaaahhhhhhhh.

Can you imagine the heat given off by those two tubes?

BTW......those speakers are also very extreme (and cool)

Man, those things aren't tube amps, they're halogen bulbs! Sheesh, talk about overkill size and brightness wise.

 

[futant]

It's truly frightening.
I'd imagine Satan's sound system to look something like this, glowing and throbbing and pumping out insane volumes to the ears of the damned.
I've spent $1400 on my headphone setup and thought that I was being a little ridiculous.
Truly limitless...

That's a GM100, a 1000W Russian triode transmitting tube. It has an 18! amp filament. Here are a few great pictures of this tube.

It only APPEARS to get that bright because when you turn the thing on it draws so much current all the house lights dim by at least half. Sheesh, that thing is simply huge. I also loved the shot of it next to an ECC82. Made that little tube literally tiny.

LOL!!

Look at that last picture http://www.vt52.com/diy/myprojects/amps/gm100/gm100.htm

This gives a better comparisson for the size. Notice the keyboard in back, to get an idea of the size.

He has humongous hands too!! (compare hand vs keyboard)

Think I'll pick up one of those amp to heat up my apartment this winter. Would make a very nice heat stove.

That's a good excuse to tell the significant other when you want to drop 10% of yearly income on some of those babies

KR... had this up a little bit ago. It was in Seattle I think. It would have been pretty cool to hear. Anyone catch the quick glimpse of the C-J Premier 17 LS and the Premier 140? That setup is unreal. My local store has it hooked up to some Wilson Sofia's, it is amazing. Of course, it will set you back a nice car, without the source, but still.
