COOL!.. Was that one loaded Phier/Mepcos? or is that a secret :D

Thanks

Tony
Yeah Pihers and RN70 and RN65. Carbon comp grids as we know. Excellent construction on the amp. PEM nuts everywhere, super thick chassis (prob a full .125”) and a world voltage switch!!! He wrapped each component before soldering I bet that amp lasts forever. Huge foamy coax and a single pass-through-the-chassis relay like your drawing indicates.

I'm uncertain what's meant here by "wrapped"?

Thanks .. Ian

He made a strong physical connection at every joint before soldering; ex, fully wrapped resistors around lugs

Beautiful work as always Taylor, I think you just get even better with time. I still can't get over how cool it was that you had a chance to experience that amp personally.

I just got home from playing this very amp. It is one of the very best amps that I have ever owned. Thank you again Taylor. I'm saving for a second one!
