I was able to get about 90% of the board completed. I'm waiting on some parts to arrive prior to completing the rest of the board. I can't wait to hear the
Sozo caps
(http://www.sozoamplification.com) along with two
Riken Ohm (
http://angela.com/rikenohmresistors.aspx) 1/2 watt carbon comp gold plated resistors also arriving soon. Those
Riken's will be put in the most critical section (resistor wise) of the amp. Here's the back side of the board. The wire is tinned silver stranded
Teflon coated.
Here's a closeup showing the Sozo Mustard caps.
The top of the board, I'm still waiting on three capacitors to arrive. The 5w power resistor on the right hand side (white rectangle) is a 150 ohm. Amp #1 had a 130 ohm. I went with a 150 ohm on this one because it is easier on the power tubes, so they will last longer.
