should a chassis like this show up, i'm absolutely sure i can make a megatronxl custom board fit. :D

Better yet... Single Power ES-1 board!!  ;)  Seriously though, as fucked as the ES-1 and ES-2 were... there was less wrong with the actual circuit than this pile of fail.  Let's put build quality aside, the permanent 100V offset, non floating heaters chewing up tubes and some other "minor" issues... they did produce enough volume for a normal listening session.  :D

speaking of fucked, here is the latest highend.de stupidity. tube current source added to antares v3.5 board.  6sn7 has a max cathode to filament voltage of +/-100v which means that anything over 400vppss at the output is slowly destroying the current source tube. god damm how hard is it to read the 6sn7 datasheet. even worse the filaments of both current source tubes tied to the same transformer winding. sure does not look like srpp.

how fucking stupid is this idiot.

edit: this may have been done by someone else using the highend.de board.
