And yet another 45/100

Post by ReidarNikolai » Thu Mar 17, 2011 1:31 pm

Hi all

Below are pics of my finished 45/100 - another norwegian :wink: .
I have no knowledge of electronics so I must give really big thanks to Roe and Shakti for keeping up with me.
I've been pestering them for a year :shock:
Big thanks also to all of You at the Metro forum and to mr Billy Batz' for the guide in this subforum...
And of course George and the Metro team!

OKI - the lowdowns;
Larry grounding, Marstran transformers and choke, NOS Mustards, Rifa's - everything else from George i think..

It's just big and bold sounding this amp. I have a Phillips, Brimar and RCA in V1-V3. KT66 are Gold Lions..

No pics of the amp in it's chassis yet - I'll keep it in it's "house" while it settles in.
I have a purple headshell (plexi style) that I will use in time - so original housing for me

If any one needs close ups let me know - I have more than 100 pics taken while I built the amp

Again:
Big thanks to Roe, Shakti and everyone at the Metro forum
:toast:

Reidar


Pics - sorry about the quality I'm also not a photographer :oops: :

Awesome work! I'm (hopefully) finishing up my 45/100 build soon and I know I'll have to thank the same folks as you!

Here are pics of the amp in it's case. As I said - non original type..
Forgot to mention the beautiful boards by Brian H so I've attached another pic of the board.

The amp sounds better by each time I fire it up. Really nice sound, full bodied and glassy (classy 8) )
