Home Tube DIY Asylum

Do It Yourself (DIY) paradise for tube and SET project builders.

RE: What, specifically, are you using? Telling us might yield specific answers. (nt)

For speakers I hauled home 2x 17 cu.ft refrigerators with 2x Tad 1602 and 290 hz tractrix with TD 4001 , I just put 2441 with truextent beryllium dias for a change (both suck more or less) amps I have on hand old ASL kt88 triode connected (very decent amp actually although little loose on bass) Audio Research VS55 , my mono 45's with yamamoto circuit and onetics trans. Some older Exposure SS .
Sold out the rest of hummers during the move. Basically I'm going to build new amplification and usual 100uF 5H 100uf never quite worked .
I'd like to have this comfortable feeling of quietness like when you listen to top Magnepan driven by 300w ARC amp just without this alien ,out of space dead sound of inept panel speaker.
For the record I tried Jeff's low everything PSU and I understand the allure of lively , energetic, direct sound. Virtually everybody visiting preferred flywheel PSU compared to traditional Pi filter but unfortunately this kind of PSU is not bass potent (true bass from big enclosure ) and I couldn't stand hum.
