My 50W amp - new pics

Kit looks fab. Assume it sounds fab? Best into the KEFs? Can the 50W model
also run as low-power in triode mode? Love the idea of two modi operandi.

Some are 4-, 5- or 6-way, with a screw cover and...

garrard 40b (sp25) suppression capacitor question

Could always add 120 Ohm in series with a 22 to100nF @650VDC cap. Have often
seen this combi as a 240V mains motor switch contacts suppressor.

Check *all* junctions for loose connections.
