I had the resources to build said amps when living in Utah in the mid 2000s at the time when I acquired all the parts.
A full set of Tribute iron for a 45 driving an 845 with parafeed driver and output, four double 'C' core per side and custom Heyboer power transformers for two PS per side, one for the driver and one for the output. Mercury vapor rectified, of course. All the tubes, including Taylor globe Jr. 866 for the driver, full sized 866 for the outputs.
Lundahl iron for the PS, oil caps, the works.
But what about a chassis? That was the hangup! The only part I could not do myself.
And to be honest, it would likely be too noisy for the 106dB horns I now own. Would be perfect for about 95dB to 100dB speakers, I'd guess.
I've heard this amp with Jack's Electropint Iron in my home and can say I sat on my couch and nearly cried with the builder took it back to ship to the new owner. (Sorry Ed, ya got sloppy seconds). ;-) I was running Goodmans of England 201's (EV T350 on top) in JELabs open baffles at the time and the match was perfect.
If I had any sense, I'd pay someone to build the amp for me. Not sure I still have the schematic though. Would not be that hard to figure out, excepting the PS (LCLCLCLCLCLCLCLCLC) :-)
Way to keep the house warm in winter. I have solar so electricity is not a problem!
First they came for the dumb-asses
And I did not speak out
Because I was not a dumb-ass
