The input stage is a SRPP using ECC802S tubes, while the output stage is ultra linear. LM317 Regulators are used as constant current sources (CCS) for the output stages.

Silver-Copper-RCA-Audio-Cables.jpgSilver / heat shrink braided RCA cables with Copper drain2806 viewsA few years back I made some pure silver braided RCA cables where the third wire is not terminated at the destination end . The silver is polished then covered in heat shrink. There are two earth or negative wires. Theory is the third wire drains noise back to the source. In this build all those principals are used except the second earth wire is .8mm enameled copper wire. Smaller ferrite chokes were also used. I made these yellow to distinguish them from others. These are only 400mm long for phono preamp to preamp interconnect. Gold plugs and silver solder were used. Sound good.

A work in progress. This is only an assemblage of parts so far with nothing bolted together, but it gives sort of a preview of the finished project. The chassis will be painted black wrinkle much like the transformer covers in the back. The driver tubes are 12SN7s and 6SL7s
