I like how the gold paint matches the hardware on the Kensingtons somewhat nicely We'd love to see them but non-AK members can't view pics. Well, I signed up. They really look great. Even the shade of gold paint looks great (at least from the pics). I hope you get them soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mulveling Posted April 15, 2009 Report Share Posted April 15, 2009 We'd love to see them but non-AK members can't view pics. I copied Gordon's pics over to an album of mine here - though I'll have to take some updated system pics soon. Amps hooked up to Tannoy Glenair 10s at Audio Atlanta: BEFORE Rebuild: AFTER Rebuild: Gordon uses quality, but not boutique-priced parts. He says he tries to choose parts that best maintain the voicing of the amp's original parts. The yellow caps in the "after" pics are Illinois Caps. After replacing the old caps, a LARGE improvement came from replacing the 12AU7 gain & driver tubes with all 12BH7A (all small signal tubes are vintage RCA). Gordon says the 12AU7 driver (what drives the 7581A outputs) had a particularly difficult time handling the required voltage swings. A 12BH7A or a 6CG7 is a MUCH better choice, and after listening tests it was determined to go with the 12BH7 (the 6CG7 does require a slight circuit mod). The output tubes are GE 7581A (American KT766 equivalent) with pink/flesh-colored bases (apparently older than the black-base variant), and they are VERY nice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Knuckledragger Posted April 15, 2009 Report Share Posted April 15, 2009 500 pages of conspicuous consumption. Congratulations, head-case!
