Pestered the life out of the smart guys over there but now:
1)I know the diff between heaters, filaments, cathodes anodes and grids
2)Why wire dress goes one way and not another
3)Built (finished yesterday) a Foreplay from parts I had laying around that, for the very first time, doesn't hum, buzz, squeak, or rattle.
Not even that quiet little "rushing" sound you get with quiet tubes.
YAAAAAAYYYY!
That was a goal I set for myself before self was allowed to order the parts for the super custom foreplay based Pre I'm going to build. I got the "Trick" transformer from Doc and just sent Michael Percy $220 bucks!
