Felicidades Antonio!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Now that I've finished the home renovations and the work has slowed (I cross my fingers so there is no Covid regrowth), I've been able to make up time to listen to music and dedicate myself to my DIY projects. Today I'm listening Opeth "Blackwater Park"

I bought some 2SJ109BL from a guy named Gary at DIYAudio. Something expensive. Once at home checked and everything was perfect according to the readings he had made and Toshiba's specifications. Luck? Maybe .... but if you don't want to play Russian roulette, better the Linear Sis 2SC174 / 2SJ74.

Al Stewart "The year of the Cat"

Aesthetically IMO it´s a beautiful frame, I like the idea of not having the vertical tube (where the seatpost goes) and I like the idea of using the same "look" frame for everything (road and mountain). I'm not an expert but I'm not sure if it´s whether there is an advantage in weight / resistance vs. a current carbon frame (multi layers) and specific either for road or MTB. On the other hand, without a vertical tube that helps support the rider's weight, these pods have to be quite robust... and heavy. For general use such as going for a walk, excursions, moving around the city, etc. I think it would work

Opeth - Watershed

Thanks !!!!

Thank you guys!!!

A war on drugs

Happy Birthday!

I've been using a pream based on the ubal/bal and four cfa for my headphones. It is one of the amps I feel most satisfied.

Happy Birthday!!!!

I choose a different earphone from my collection every week but for some reason I always go back to my 007

A detail that I forgot to comment, the slow 1A fuses that I use at the output each HV line of my PSU were blown. The fuse on the HV + rail protected its side of the GRHV but the one on the side - it wasn't so lucky.

I discovered them precisely by Gogo Penguin ... Gondwana Record are signing very interesting artists

I'm listening a lot to Mammal Hands

Thanks for advice Joachim! I´ll work in that direction.

I'm left with this image ...

What have you used as input devices?, Were they macheted? do you have the transformer near the inputs? ....

What the hell is Kapton used for on the potentiometer shaft? I miss the DIY activity that was here until a few years ago but I can understand that, due to this type of thing, the intention to create and give new designs to the DIY community has decreased.

Thanks!!!! My fault…. I was like crazy looking for that album in the bassist's discography. 🙄

I think I have not expressed myself well: For the EL34 I use a single trafo with two windings. One winding per channel (2 EL34 per winding) For the E88CC I use another trafo with its own psu for DC heater. Both types of tubes DO NOT share transformer.

The resistance I have in the current limiter is about 3R. It is interesting what you have commented about removing the CL resistor. Perhaps without this resistor the damage would have been greater ¿?¿?¿?¿?¿?¿? Currently my plan is to build a BH or BHmini PSU just for testing. As for the heating filaments, my T2 mini is configured with the E88CC filaments in DC (with a separate transformer and a PSU for this work) and EL34 with the "standard" way; four tubes with AC with its own transformer. Should I use separate transformers?
