nahhh hehe ;D ;D  i just saw it in tony's shop yesterday when i passed by with a couple of friends... they were gonna have their amps tweaked, and i was gonna give him the sockets for our amp project... i wonder who comissioned him to make those trannies, they're huge... i figure one of those freshly painted ones would make a good power supply, they're bigger than the one in the new push-pull amp.

who is tony?  ;D tanong lang po.

i'm currently breaking in the preamp, together with the gainclone.....mamaya na sa monoblocks, ganda ng tunog e ;D

This preamp currently uses hitachi 12 au7s for the linestage. mids are clear, its not really slow even though its tube rectified (5u4g) and has bass >:D it might be due to the gainclone but i'm keeping my hopes up..since i tried the gainclone first on its own before adding the preamp and the bass didn't change at all. I haven't tested the cd buffer section and the phono stage yet so I will leave that for later. right now soundtrip muna ko.

speakers used: marble speakers
source: teac c-1d (next project)
interconnects: diy magnet wire
cd's tested: enya and evanescence >:D

Initial impressions of the preamp hooked up with the kt88 monoblocks:

Pros: sweet sound, especially when the amp is set to triode mode, vocals sound great and has depth. wide soundstage and separation of instruments are apparent.

Cons: a tad less detailed than the gainclone, if dynamic songs are played, it does'nt have much oomph if amp is set to triode but improves once its set to ultralinear
