Just lol. Finished them the day before and managed to get about an hour on them before packing them in the car. The HT is a bit high and they seem to like popping the output fuses, so I might have some better toroids made. Went through eight fuses at Owston, mostly from turning it up too much. :grin:

Well done, popping fuses is way cheaper than popping 300B's, the joy of valves. :grin:

Them speakers on the last pic are not subtle, think they would go well with your flea power OTL's. 8-)

Those are Mark’s work in progress, only 9 years or so up to now..

Yiuchi mid horn and I forget the ribbon tweeter. Only plays from 500hz up, he’s still working on the horns for below that.
