    Benson preamp "fizz"

    Whenever I do stripboard builds I always build two. The second copy has the same problem so I can rule out bad components/bad solder joints. I wired up the second one using a bunch of alligator clips just to check. Obviously it's going to be worse and noisier than the actually wired up copy...

    Ive proper the circuit and the fizz is occuring somewhere in the third stage. The gate of transistor three sounds fine

    Benson preamp "fizz"

    I just finished a Benson stripboard build, but I have this weird fizz under the sound that I can't figure out. I have swapped all of the transistors out and have tried different bias voltage for each tranistir but the fizz is still there. Any ideas what is causing this and how I can fix it?

    Nobelium - tube bass preamp project

    I have all premium expensive parts in my cart and I'm coming in at like $300. I don't know exactly how much because I have like 10 projects lumped together

    My first commissioned pedals!

    I was approached and asked for a Mosrite FuzzRite clone by two people and I'm happy with how they turned out. This was my first time using taydas printing service. It was pretty easy to make a simple clean design. One of the enclosures got scratched up and I forgot my LED resistors initially...

    DIY Tube Headphone Amplifer (Hi-fi)

    Good call, I didn't even check what tubes the crack uses. I guess I'll look into something 12au7 based

    DIY Tube Headphone Amplifer (Hi-fi)

    A tube headphone amp is on my list for this year. I plan to get a pair of HD600s soon and I've heard they paper well with tubes. I'm thinking a bottlehead crack using one of vigilante398s power supply boards. It would make it completely transformerless, affordable, and pretty small. It'll...

    8056 Nuvistor

    Enclosure Lid Printing

    Tayda has the option to print on the "bottom" or "enclosure lid" Which option should I choose to print on this part? I'm guessing enclosure lid but I just want to confirm.

    Nobelium - tube bass preamp project

    I know hifi guys will put a fast discharging cap in parallel with a bigger cap to prevent smearing of high frequencies but that's outside the range of most instruments. Noble strikes me as coming from the hifi world so perhaps it's a carry over.

    Nobelium - tube bass preamp project

    Thanks! What is the purpose of C13? I can't imagine 220uF vs 221uF makes much of a difference

    Nobelium - tube bass preamp project

    What is the minimum voltage rating for C13 and C14? I'm looking a Panasonic caps that only go up to 10V also 2mm or 2.5mm lead spacing?

    Nobelium - tube bass preamp project

    Looks like the output cap is 2.2uF to me. I plan to play around with C8 and try everything from 4n7 to 10n and see what sounds best. I'm guessing 6n8 will start rolling off at ~60Hz which should be great for upright

    High Voltage Power Supply

    Do you think this power supply would work in some of rob Robinettes micro amps. I think they make a few watts. I know you're power amp pedal is similar to a firefly amp which I believe is pretty similar to rob's stuff
