Gotta be a joke, right? Otherwise I need to quit my day job and start making light boxes.

It's a high end analog light that requires a linear power supply.

Tubes have been sourced and the build is coming along nicely. Hopefully will have the wiring finished tonight, powered up and initial bias set for break in.

Wiring and some troubleshooting complete. Have about an hour burn in complete on the bench and bias has settled down. Listened to then for an hour or so last night. Definitely more powerful than the 300B, but lacking in detail and a bit congested. Definitely more break in time is needed.
