Home Tube DIY Asylum

Do It Yourself (DIY) paradise for tube and SET project builders.

YES, your experience really proves who's "lack of pratice". .

Hi.

Who needs any cooling for point-to-point tube soldering. Not even for s junior student in its first soldering project.

But for multi-pin SMDs, like simple bipolars, let alone OP-amp chips,
We got to take more precaution. After all, nobody else will pays for one's mistake.

I can challenge whoever who claims to have tons of soldering experience (on tube stuffs maybe) can be damn sure not risking damaging the MULI-pin sand devices without cooling.

This is thermal physics. I would not 100% rely on self-acclaimed
soldering skill.

Likewise, even a very experienced rope-walking acrobat would need safty net.

My question to those nay-sayers: how many SMDs they have soldered in the last 12 months?

FYI, I am currently upgrading a SS phonostage where desoldering & soldering is needed to replace all the resistors to 1% MF non-inductive & caps to tantanium. Can anyone here tell me by one's so claimed tons of soldering experience alone can saftguards the semi-conductor SMDs????

Talk big to newbies. But not me. Pal.
