I picked up this wonderfull homebuilt amp awhile back and would just like to get others opinions and specific info on what style tube amp it is and thoughts on it.
I unfortunately know very little on the history of this amp. I purchased it from a gentleman who had acquired it from the estate of the gentleman who had built it, per the gentleman's family he was respected tube guru before his passing, and this was one of his personal prized amps, and it shows in my opinion when you see the quality of the build he did on it.
I pulled the bottom cover off today for the first time to snap a couple shots for this thread, I expected it to be done well, but I dont think I have ever seen a wiring job done so meticulously, quite impressive and audio art to me.
Specifics
Tubes- two 12AU7, two JAN 6C4WA, four sylvania brown bottom (5831 only number I can find on them)
Transformers are hammond brand, two 1650 G input transformers,one 272JX power transformer.
Appreciate any info anyone can pass on thanks
