Finish.JPGTandy Optimus 77 Upgrade13704 viewsThese Tandy Optimus 77, though many years old, had never been used. They were in as new condition but the woofer surround had rotted. I replaced the 5†woofer with an inexpensive 4†driver. I made clamps to hold it in place and heavy foam to ensure a good seal. The Xover 4.7uf cap was replaced with a quality cap and additional dampening added. They good but not stunning.

TDA2003-DIY-HiFi-Amplifier.jpgTDA2030 DIY HiFi Amplifier7848 viewsAnother excellent looking build by vortchun. This DIY amplifier is built around the TDA2030 which will put out a maximum of 14W. The wooden enclosure matches the previously completed Voight Pipe Speakers Visaton BG 17 driver project.
For full details of this TDA2030 chip amplifier build, see the TDA2030 DIY Amplifier thread on the discussion forum.

DIY-6AS7-Tube-Headphone-Amplifier.jpgDIY 6AS7 Tube Headphone Amplifier6754 viewsMy name is Laurie. I have been building and DIYing for 45 years now and happily will never stop. This tube headphone amp is from a thread in the Form.
The power connecting cable comes from a European Travel Iron I bought for $1.00 at junk shop. (220v/6A) They will be shortened when I find a perch for the amp and me. The sound is better than my ears have ever heard so I will be keeping this one for my retirement entertainment should such a time ever come. Wink It has worked from day one and continues to please me every time it is turned on. The tubes are JJ ECC88 / 6AS7 with a 5V4 rectifier tube. To spite it's small size the parts are quite easily accessed. I over built most components so it will outlast me I fear. The only change I anticipate may be the 6AS7 to a bottle neck glass to match the rectifier tube. I do have and use a 6080 tube, but i can tell no difference in sound. It will take more then a few hours of listening to get my ears better tuned.Feb 28, 2017

4-channel-400W-amplifier.jpg 4 channel, 400 W amplifier5396 viewsThis 4-channel 400 W amplifier uses Hypex UcD400HG modules together with the corresponding power supply.
The whole is mounted inside a Galaxy 330 x 230 x 80 case.
For building instructions, have a look at this project's wiki.
Two such amplifiers has been working for over 2 years in my lounge, driving Linn Komponent 110 loudspeakers which each have 4 speaker inputs.

E88CC-SV83-SET-Amplifiers.jpgDual SV83 SET Amplifiers5553 viewsA mirrored pair of SET amplifiers, presently being used in bridged mode. All P2P construction using silver solder. I included a "Hazen grid" capacitor and input tube bias change switch. The single mA meter displays individual output tube bias current with a Left/Right switch. Edcor XPRW178 power transformer and GXSE10-6-8K output transformers. Upgraded caps to Jantzen Audio 1200V Z-Superior. Upgraded resistors to PRP PR9372 Audio for metal film and TAKMAN REX for carbon film. ALPS Blue 100K attenuator. The power supply uses a RCA 5U4GB rectifier and Hammond 156R choke. Matched pairs of Svetlana SV83 for power and JJ E88CC for the input tube.
