Worth noting that a buffer in the traditional sense is a cathode follower (or variation). These employ 100% negative feedback and as such normally...
Great build with nice transformers! If you feel like tweaking, add a negative voltage rail to the bottom of the CCSs in place of ground (-12v or...
Comparing the unity gain designs (Pass and Cavalli) and the Whammy as preamps really was a fun treat. Couldn't have better gear than the Pass amp...
It was great spending a few hours listening to systems and talking audio! @fraggler @dBel84 @Buck Rogers The little Frankenstein monitors are...
Would love to meet for a beer! Been to Biloba? One of my favorites on the West side but I rarely get out there. I'm hoping I can finish the...
Shoot, I've got Saturday plans. I'm almost done with a new pair of monoblocks though and will let you know when they're ready if you are...
Nice! did you use the Schitt power brick? I've got my parts with the exception of a cap that must have went backorder between ordering and...
Why the Lundahl 2743 plate load instead of the Sowter 8982 (or why not a LL2765 OPT)? Parts on hand? Looks like a monster in the works.
Got my board today, thanks @Cspirou! Still have to order parts. Some of the caps on the BoM were out the last time I pulled it up.
Ooh, cool. I've been looking at the uTracer and eTracer as potential future projects but I haven't seen this eBay special before. Looks like it's...
I've added the former part to the cart and here's an updated link: https://www.mouser.com/ProjectManager/ProjectDetail.aspx?AccessID=8f12ee3645...
Things are not looking much better at Digikey (some of the same parts are out). edit below. Here's a cart with alternatives to the out of stock...
Definitely makes it more challenging. At least there are no ICs with lots of pins.
Whoops, not only did I add a zero looking at the plate curves but it sounds like they don't reflect reality anyways. Thanks for the patience.
@schiit The 6418 triode curves I have suggest a much lower current with 30V B+ and a 10k load. Closer to what @peef was seeing. Do you mean the...
