I love my Fuchs Bassman ODS100!

Edit: Andy also promptly responded to a question I had asked him about the amp. Can't beat that. Thanks, Andy.

I'm very sorry for your loss, Lefty.

I'm very sorry for your loss, Tom. I was going to post this in full but couldn't get through it with dry eyes, so here is the link: http://www.webcircle.com/dogs/eulogy.html I hope it helps.

Thanks all for the quality content and discussion! This thread is a real treat and the featured amps sound great.

One question: on V4a+b cathodes, usually the R/bypass C combination is elevated by ...

Very cool! Thanks for posting these.

I've read a recommendation that in the (sensitive) grid stopper position a resistor with little inductance is important. I employed the "hifi" trick of testing resistors with a magnet and while the metal films and carbon comps didn't stick, the carbon films did. I'll be ordering both carbon films an...

Some gut shots of the sterling made their way on here a while back--from ebay if i'm not mistaken--and it's tough to tell what's going on with the filters. Folks have said to consult chap 5 of Radiotron v4. If anything that info could be transformed into a proper approximation. One thing I wasn't co...
