sweet & juicy SE amp for 1626 Darlings and the 6L6 family

Another 6L6 Ultra

Postby miker » Sun May 20, 2012 11:56 am

Just completed an Ultra this weekend. I have about 20 hours on it and it sounds great. Dead quiet and plenty of power for my 93 dB speakers. Top plate is Front Panel Express. The base is rosewood and was originally built for another project that never materialized. It's a little bigger than I needed here. I have a bunch of 6L6 and KT66 tubes to cycle through to see what I like best. Re-issue Gold Lions shown in the glamour shots.

Beautiful work! (love)

Is the print laser etched or CNC?

Cheers!

Thanks for the compliment. It's Front Panel Express and I believe they use CNC for the engraving but, I'm not positive.

Yes , it is CNC. Here is a link to some pictures of a Head-Fi meet that was held at Front Panel Express in Seattle this past January. Several of the pictures are of the factory tour.

Hopefully the link works.

Great looking amp by the way.

Can you share youre FPX files for the main panel and the panel for the connections?

Is this a Hammond chassis or where did you get the base?

thanx
