Only on the special -=*=- version of the pcb. Of course only one of those will ever be made, cause, like there can only be one of something that special cause it was patented at age 19 before it became a NSF scholar pcb at which point it became so awesome sounding that it became the valedictorian of pcbs and went on to pcb university to make post-it art.

Will do. And that's not my amp, that's tomb's. Mine isn't done yet but should be by the end of next week.

They're coming, just not sure when. We've done one round of prototyping (this pcb) and I think we're going to do a second to tweak one or two things and then we'll release the hounds. The first revision looks like this: All I have left is to wire the DC jack, switch, pot and input.

I have a JBloud smiley too...

I was actually going to suggest that as a name as well.

No we don't.

Lily was being a good sleeper so I populated 90% of a starving student hybrid pcb.

DING DING DING - we have a winner!

That's nothing.

I just want to know where Smeggy has been for the last two weeks.

Hand Made Audio really is a better source from my experience. Digikey doesn't carry much of the line and nothing over 35V.

I applaud your choice of beverage.

Nope, I believe that's supposed to be The McCains. That's based purly on the pic of the wife, who's downright scary looking in real life, and the exaggerated aging of John (in line with the Obama cover of the New Yorker).

I'm waiting for the latest rev to come out to hopefully push refurb prices lower.

No Bert or Ernie = fail.

I'm still waiting for your deposit.

Jude probably isn't going to think that name is cute. Of course, he's a member too.

Agreed. And part of Mikhail's problem is his willingness to modify things after they've been completed. I think more often than not this probably paints him into a corner regarding layout and so on and results in a product that looks hacked together.

I love how some people are saying that you can't have both a neat and functional layout and that the rats nest approach is always in the name of signal path purity. Considering the moron that built the above amp managed to do both I'd say it's reasonable to expect the same from just about anyone.

Ok, that's right up there with Bitch Weasel in my book, make yourself another custom title Reks, dew eet now!

Agreed, that's just outstanding.

Yeah, pbase is down so no pics till they get their act in order. I'll post the full alpha-numeric codes for each tube tonight.
