Hi Everyone, Fame and fortune follow us DIYers (well one of two is kind of true). ....sort of tooting my own horn here. For the second time (last time was 2013) I made the cover of Audio Express. They like my articles and this one is the 8th one published. It covers a stereo version of the mid size Oddblocks. A joint power supply, capacitive multiplier B+ filtering, an extra gain stage and a balance control (it caused the need for the extra stage). Except for the higher gain (about 7X) it is much the same as the single amps. A fun amp to build even if it weighs nearly 40 pounds. I will try to post something in more detail on it shortly. BTW I'm not really fond of the color as it came out different than I wanted. But after drilling all the holes and such I was not about to try to get it off. So the name stuck...Cranberry. /forum/index.php?t=getfile&id=2745&private=0

Hubba hubba! Is there a fold out section? Bet it sounds alluring. Looks classy to me.

Hi, sort of part one of two... The original posting was part a pat on the back, but more importantly provide stimulus for others to see how they might excel as well. I was at the same time reflecting on how forums in general have a positive influence on individuals. I sure have benefited. Even though I have dabbled in electronics for about 60 years now, I still learn new stuff. Before forums, it didn't occur to me to share much of my thoughts and designs with anyone. After them, the benefits were two fold. One, folks looked at my ideas and two, I looked at theirs. Additionally, back and forth questions made both of us better. In me it forced introspection. Just why did I do something in a design? Is there another or better way? Forums give me another thing I believe important. I like to encourage others to try stuff. Expand their abilities and learn. Forums provide this venue. Keep on soldering,

Good Listening

Hi, Also May 2013. Glass Audio version on the cover. They probably only indexed so many back issues.

Good Listening
