    @ Mongoose.  If the cabs are a bit big, it leaves space for lots of internal bracing.  Even adding MDF inside the front baffle (bit more difficult if back is already glued) might improve the cab :thinking:

    Nice :thumbs: what drivers do you intend using?  And final finish? Initially thought you should add a small car for scale :giggle:

      :facepalm: Mongoose  hopefully just a temporary setback.  Also: you're  suppose to listen to the amplifier not to look at it  :giggle: The body putty I'm using is a bit old, so either it doesn't set when I add too little hardener or it sets too quickly when I add "normal" amount. :Ooooooh:   ...

    I'm a big fan of the idea behind the ACA, but don't  know much about the current "version" (?V1.6).  VU meters :thinking: interesting.

    Probably lots of recycled (and leftover) components will be used for this.  Removed the transformer and will repurpose this old chassis.  Some of the previous  mounting holes will be hidden by the transformer as well as OPT covers..... so I'm not going to spend lots of time to close them as I...

    Found SEN on the schematic at the 6.3V/4.5A  :thumbs:  Since I plan on using only 2 valves, is this output preferred to the 6.3V/3A (and then do a virtual centre tap) :thinking:

    Found this.  Voltage doubler :thinking: Not sure how many mA is needed for the HT in the circuit I want to use?

    DIY projects, 4 week deadline

    Was thinking of using this circuit as I have an old Pioneer SX-410 that is in a bad state.  I also have different OPT's for SE already. So when looking at the transformer that I removed from the amplifier a few questions please: 1.  From top left.  How do I wire the input:  In at first 0...

    Most of us should have more free time available over the next few weeks.  It might be an excellent time to "pledge" a project even if you do a separate topic eventually.  I've got valves and stuff from USA stuck at some entry point in SA since 20 March, holding thumbs it might still arrive on...

    As said, except if it's cheap, free/little postage,  you're in no hurry and you're OK if it never arrives, I'll not use any postage where SAPO is involved anymore.  Had stuff sent with USPS.  Was fairly expensive and I understood that once it arrived in SA I'll get a new tracking number BUT...

    Yamaha NS1000 Makeover

    Looks very nice indeed.  Interesting that drivers can be in such good shape while cabs are worn etc  :thinking:

    I seem to remember (although over your total budget)  a serviced NAD 3020 in the  classifieds not too long ago :thinking:
