This EL34 single-ended valve amplifier has been a labour of Love for me, my very first one. I handcrafted it using the best components I could afford. All wiring is done point-to-point. I also did the copper metalwork and woodwork myself, except for the gorgeous volume knob and feet, those were made by one of our very own, Uncle Mike, aka @VALVAGLO . The amplifier is switchable between ultra-linear pentode and triode operation. The negative feedback is also switchable.
Dedicated to Sanātana Dharma and all my Loved ones who've passed on.
The underside of the amplifier has the cooling holes hand-drilled in the design of a Mandala, one has the Aum sign in it and the other a Swastika.
A very big thank you goes out to Uncle Mike, @VALVAGLO and @handsome , both these gentlemen were instrumental in me completing my very first valve amp build.
Some extra shots for you guys to check out.
