Hi again everybody.
My amp is complete, and playing music from my iPOD at the moment (Dire Straits) and sounds WONDERFUL.
Dead quite.
I have posted more pics in the
photo album.
There is one small hitch, the four large filter caps (C9 thru C12) are a bit to tall for the bottom cover to go on the SS chassis from Triode.
I pulled the stand-offs out and replaced them with 6-32 .75" long screws thinking I could get a bit of clearance, but, this still is not enough.
I haven't screwed the bottom cover on as of yet, but when I test fit it, there is a noticeable gap at the front edge of the chassis where the bottom cover meets the rolled over edge of the top chassis
Has anybody else had this problem?
I may have to ponder this for a day or two...
I think I am now needing a linestage with a phono pre-amp so I can control the volume.
I may have to rig up a pot in the meantime so I can pull my turntable (1980's Techniques SL-B2 + Audio-Technica cartridge) out of storage so I can spin some vinyl! I know it's nothing fancy, but it works for me!
Cheers!
Scott
