Clever ( ? ) use of GaN amp board inside a tube structure, with up to 170 watts into 4 ohms. Neat design, and I have a pair of mono GaN amps ($1500/pr) that likely sound just as good; so not sure it's worth the money to have it look like a tube amp..... Third picture is the old vs. new version of the GaNTube. This is only an updated version of the FETRON, introduced in 1972 by Teledyne. A thick film hybrid JFET amp in the header of something that looked like a nuvistor. fetron.pdf 2
Knuckledragger Posted April 27, 2021 Report Posted April 27, 2021 darTZeel monoblocks looks like chonky computer cases to me. Their name looks like a "gamer" brand as well. Frank Herbert once said he based the Harkonnen on the Swiss. For Giedi Prime! 3
starcat Posted April 27, 2021 Report Posted April 27, 2021 What is the white deck middle to the right, with both rotary knob, on the right to the Dartzeel pre-amp?
Torpedo Posted April 27, 2021 Report Posted April 27, 2021 I'd say it's a phono preamp, but not the EAR 912 which I thought it was 2
Knuckledragger Posted April 28, 2021 Report Posted April 28, 2021 (edited) It sure has a nice finish. I wonder what kind of noises it makes. *squawk* Edited April 28, 2021 by Knuckledragger 2
Knuckledragger Posted May 10, 2021 Report Posted May 10, 2021 Some "old, beat up gear" given to a guy on /r/audiophile by his GF's dad. 3

mwl168 Posted May 16, 2021 Report Posted May 16, 2021 That’s one way to find out if cat fur is conductive.
Craig Sawyers Posted May 20, 2021 Report Posted May 20, 2021 I remember the school physics book that talked about generating static electricity. "Rub an amber rod with cat fur..." I wondered whether this experiment had ever been tested by the writers of such books. Here kitty kitty kitty.. 2
skullguise Posted May 24, 2021 Report Posted May 24, 2021 Liked for the audio system AND the hockey....GO BRUINS!
Craig Sawyers Posted June 1, 2021 Report Posted June 1, 2021 Left and right monoblocks are mirror images - that is a really nice touch. Hand cut dovetails are decent looking too.
