luvdunhill Posted November 11, 2008 Author Report Posted November 11, 2008 Akido? probably "Audio" honestly...
n_maher Posted November 11, 2008 Report Posted November 11, 2008 Akido? probably "Audio" honestly... I was going to call the Lily The Beta22 but that just seemed weird.
Voltron Posted November 11, 2008 Report Posted November 11, 2008 What a strip tease this is! Excellent work, my friend, even if it is for the lawyer from the wrong coast. Marc, yours look great as well. The push button seems particularly cool.
n_maher Posted November 11, 2008 Report Posted November 11, 2008 What a strip tease this is! Excellent work, my friend, even if it is for the lawyer from the wrong coast. Heh, he's the lawyer that asks so... This is the last public image until more work gets done.
luvdunhill Posted November 11, 2008 Author Report Posted November 11, 2008 very cool. Though the next panels you'll see on a project of mine will be wood Material is headed down to Dr. Wood himself, from a purveyor of fine instrument woods in the northwest. Just have to keep him from "spilling" that pink dye all over the material....
Torpedo Posted November 11, 2008 Report Posted November 11, 2008 Very nice Nate, elegant, austere and neat. Would you make a balanced one of those for me?
n_maher Posted November 11, 2008 Report Posted November 11, 2008 Very nice Nate, elegant, austere and neat. Would you make a balanced one of those for me? Sorry, no can do - I've got too many projects and too little time as it is. Thanks for the kind words though.
Torpedo Posted November 11, 2008 Report Posted November 11, 2008 I was expecting that reply, as a matter of fact, almost wishing it hehe. Not that I really need another SS headphone amp, but you know, curiosity for sound and such nice looks I call dibs for that one were you selling it, I suppose it wouldn't cause much hassle making it to work at 230V
Voltron Posted November 11, 2008 Report Posted November 11, 2008 tyrion will ultimately sell that beauty because he just cannot help himself. Call dibs with him.
Fungi Posted November 11, 2008 Report Posted November 11, 2008 That is one freakin' sexy amp. The volume and source knobs are
n_maher Posted November 11, 2008 Report Posted November 11, 2008 tyrion will ultimately sell that beauty because he just cannot help himself. Call dibs with him. I think I've already called reverse dibs on it. And it's actually not at all easy to convert to 230V, it uses a single primary trafo that I had custom built by SumR in Canada (fully shielded and potted). So some major surgery would be required along with a new trafo. This thing is going to be pretty much US voltage spec only but should be completely devoid of the hum issues that other single chassis betas have had. Geez, I've really managed to crap the heck out of this thread.
Pars Posted November 11, 2008 Report Posted November 11, 2008 Sorry, no can do - I've got too many projects and too little time as it is. Thanks for the kind words though. I'm going to need you to build some amps on Saturday...
spritzer Posted November 11, 2008 Report Posted November 11, 2008 Mine was very easy to change which goes to show that Nate could build one for you...
n_maher Posted November 11, 2008 Report Posted November 11, 2008 Mine was very easy to change which goes to show that Nate could build one for you... Shhhuush you! It really just depends on the transformer. All the Avel trafos I've come across could be used in 230V countries, I just didn't use one for this beta.

Marc, yours look great as well. The push button seems particularly cool. hey, have you ever considered trying a First Watt F3 with your Gallos? I know you may be headed down another path, but I think it would be worth trying... Here's a F3+Gallo review.. 6moons audio reviews: FirstWatt F3/Gallo Ref 3.1 - A brief riff on good sound and the power required to make it
swt61 Posted November 12, 2008 Report Posted November 12, 2008 I was going to call the Lily The Beta22 but that just seemed weird. Yeah, a little RSAish, although I completely understand the desire. Sweet aesthetic!
swt61 Posted November 12, 2008 Report Posted November 12, 2008 Mine was very easy to change which goes to show that Nate could build one for you... What are you powering with yours spritzer?
Salt Peanuts Posted November 12, 2008 Report Posted November 12, 2008 Very nice looking panel, Nate. What's the font used?
Pars Posted November 12, 2008 Report Posted November 12, 2008 Yeah, a little RSAish, although I completely understand the desire. Sweet aesthetic! I like the looks of that jack on there, and the lettering is quite good as well. But of course, it would have been Lily B22 "The Beta" for the full effect.
spritzer Posted November 12, 2008 Report Posted November 12, 2008 What are you powering with yours spritzer? Tannoy R2 speakers pulling TV duty.
