Only one input fet.
True and it made nice smell to boot.
Probably smell the same later tonight when I plug in the whammy😬
That’s the melting Tupperware.
Can’t find one big enough so will just lay it in a cardboard box to try it out…doesn’t smell as bad as plastic.
Yeah.
An engineer’s idea of ‘helpful’ labelling…
Good to see it’s working as expected…
Something (just) within my technical competence to wire-up correctly -
Must be close to 3 years since I last made a pair of these!
6b4g amps are really sensitive but rather than use a dropper resistor managed to find some NOS panasonic single channel pots I can put in each of the mono amps.
Footastic and adjustable
what value?
50K
should be fine
assumed they are the old Panasonic ones that are supposed to be better than Nobles? have never seen them in the flesh so it was a punt.
I’m not aware of them.
Back in the 90s they were about £50 each for the stereo version, I used them in the copper Model 2 preamps, they were really nice, but v spendy and v hard to get hold of. I preferred them to Alps black and Noble i seem to recall.
Good luck with 2 pots in 2 monos, you can go rubber room crazy trying to get them at exactly the same level, ask anyone who ever had a Croft preamp
What valves are in the 6b4g monos?
6b4g
(and PCC88)
let’s hope it isn’t 88 - 88 - 6B4G, that would have stupid high sensitivity!
with your M7 and those speakers you probably only want 88 - 6B4G
