He he…

 

Anyone from back then still hanging around? Paul Parrot, Dean G, etc.?

Dean is here with a different name

@Crankysoldermeister.

 

Tony is here sometimes. I think he may have the one-off pp 2a3 amp you built.

 

You still in the mine business?

Thanks, yeah, still digging holes for a living.
 

Pays quite a lot more than building amps I must say…

 

It’s good to feed the audio addiction.

 

yeah, Tony still uses the PP2A3 I made for him. Still trouble free after 22-23 years. The wood of the chassis was one of the most gorgeous piece of wood I ever saw.

7 watts?

Kegger/Blue Glow/Frankenstein KT88 SET built in an old McAlister Audio SE32 PSE chassis using the OPTs.

The sweep tube amp had 11 tubes, so I left 6 fake tubes in their sockets.

This one has too much power - 15 watts?

I indeed am here on the forum, and I indeed use in my main system an amazing 2A3 PP amp made by our favorite Mining Geologist! (is that the right Profession?).  I wish he had kept in touch here more often, many Klipsch forum members have bought or built his designs and we all enjoy the music!  warm regards from sunny el salvador,  Tony

Yeah, ah no. I don’t think that’s going to happen. I’ve written it off, which is unfortunate.

That is very disappointing. So much hype and stringing people along.
