okay you two, lay it out. what's the big deal? in talking to an
electronics building friend of mine (and customer of your's mr.
allgood), he made it seem like tube preamp building was a piece of
cake. as we were sitting there in my car on a dust storm-ravaged
burning man road, he sketched out a basic tube pre-amp schem in like
two minutes. "much easier than transistor stuff" he said. "been
doing it since i was a teenager" he said. maybe i missed the emails
where you guys waxed poetic about just how much lethal voltage we
were all getting ourselves into, but besides an envelope follower, my
most desired module would be some kinda of tube VCA.
don't let that dickhead eric barbour (whoops, did i just say
dickhead?) have all the fun. i'm gonna have to resort to
rackmounting a fisher reciever here in a month or two.
