I actually built a few of these amps (6l6 versions) after Henry posted it here. Henry was the king at cram mage (everything on one board and in a small chassis) i also built a few of his mini D-lators as well. The result? In my case none of these amps sounded very good. the clean channel was do-able...

This amp was first posted here in 2006

I don't know how you could get power supply caps any closer together than putting them in the same can ;^) I am not aware of different compositions of electrolytics being significant to sound quality, These two statements are so clear the pretty much tell the story themselves. Especially after your...

Back when I was running VVT and we were Cranking out Lindy Fralin Model Amps (Combos) one of the suppliers had a huge sale and were trying to unload a bunch on Radial caps. (I believe they were Xicons) So we bought a few hundred to try and see if we could work them into the design. We modified our P...

Illinois makes film caps too. Could be? however I don't ever recall, Dumble using IC Film caps? in the preamp of any of his amps/rebuilds/Mods...Have you? 311674_10200537220651783_1464032435_n.jpg DSC00483.jpg 234ods.jpg So then if Dumble was serious? the question I have would be which cap (or posi...

Tony, I believe that linked discussion is about preamp cap spacing and possible crosstalk via the electric field around them.

Martin? i thought he said IC's Illinois Capacitor's (Power Supply). No?
Tony

think that matters? 2) The caps that were in there were ok, but Howard wanted a different cap composition than the regular Sprague caps. Turned out an Illinois capacitor had the construction he wanted. 3) Then there was the spacing of the caps from each other. He insisted that EMSR or ESR (???) was...

A few things that jump out at me are? The amp has a nice bright clear midrange to it, very articulate :D The amp obviously likes to sustain and bloom out, even at low volumes. The low end is tight and full sounding! Response sounds fast punchy but doesn't appear to be stiff, he is using single coils...

Interesting?

I’ve used them for years in countless recording sessions and tours. They were a go to for many of my friends that are first call touring and recording guitarists. It really comes down to application. I get that we are in a dumble forum and consequently much of the thought filters down from what wor...

Did anyone build this Dclone with this reverb? And how great does it sound? Is it worth the building and effort? Where exactly was this amp derived from? Does this have a power supply schematic? Thank you Sam http://ampgarage.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=2976&start=0 AFAIK Henry used the same schemati...
