Born New Year's Eve

Postby tony » Sat Jan 04, 2014 1:22 pm

this is Bong's Honey Badger, CCS set to recommended setting, bias pot to 500 ohms,
output offset was very low and close to zero mV....
Sound reminds me of my Leach amp, no desire to increase bias at this point,
heatsinks are colder than expected.....congrats to Ostripper, Pete V. for a very nice design....
source is a MD player, since output is low, i used my tube preamp designed for these type amps....
this amp is very quiet, no part of the psu is connected to chassis, but i might add a 10 ohm to chassis later,
also, even if this amp is operating classB, sound is still very good....
