Hi Guys

Additional lead forming makes elevation of the component simpler for installation. Some power resistors are offered with elaborate extra bits to achieve this.

Yes, storing electronic equipment for extended periods kills the electrolytics, as TUTs describe a few times. No good comes from collecting amplifiers that are not powered regularly - guitars? fine - but not amps.

Have fun

Come in where it's warm!
A warm welcome to tube amp modding fans and those interested in hi-fi audio! Readers of Kevin O'Connor's The Ultimate Tone (TUT) book series form a part of our population. Kevin O'Connor is the creator of the popular Power Scaling methodology for amplifiers.
