      Thank you! I restored the 50s era turntable/tonearm/cartridge and built the tube preamp and power amp using pre-WWII tubes. The speaker cabinet was built by a friend based on my design and I installed classic Altec drivers from the 50s using a crossover network I configured.

    • @jelabs
      @jelabs 18 дней назад

      I've been doing DIY for at least three decades and have built my stereo and mono hifi systems to suit my requirements. Perhaps it's not for everyone. But IME, the time and effort I invested to enjoy my LP and CD collection has been worthwhile.

      @@jelabs Yes, I've been following you for a while on various platforms and like your work. Any tips for a good starting place? Not necessarily a mono system; just a good place to begin the DIY journey. It seems like no matter where one starts it leads to another need/rabbit hole. For example, I'd like to try a 2a3 amp, but then I'd need speakers that it could drive. My easiest speakers to drive are 93dB and 10 Ohm. So, then I've got two projects!

      @@jmal5390 - The Simple 45 - jelabsarch.blogspot.com/2012/06/je-labs-simple-452a3.html - is probably the easiest project in my blog. But it's not a kit, you'll have to source all the parts on your own which can be challenging depending on how much you know about electronics. I also can't do remote troubleshooting if you encounter problems. That said, as long as you listen within reasonable levels a 2 wpc amp can produce pretty high SPLs with 93dB sensitive speakers with benign impedance characteristics.

    Hi, ive been watching your vids. for 2 to 3 hours this morning. The equipment and variety of music is great. The sound on RUclips isn't really good. With all that great gear to be heard, you should invest in a really good microphone for your videos...😮

    • @jelabs

      Point well taken! However, as stated in my "about section," I upload videos as a proof of concept of projects and/or supplement to my blog. Besides, I'm not here to sell anything.🙂I do this to inspire people to DIY and take the path less traveled because I love music! I've been on both sides of the microphone (as a classical musician/performer and also in a recording/mixing booth) and IMHO, I wouldn't use youtube videos for evaluating hifi equipment. Best to evaluate in person, just like going to a live concert!

      As mentioned in the blog, I hardly used the 32 horn/SSD1800 combo. The 755Es can stand on their own. That said, IMHO, the top end airiness of the 32 horn (when properly implemented) is second only to the ribbon-like but extremely fragile Altec 3000 horn tweeter.

    I love it! But my wife would kill me! (I had a set of horns like that once...mine were EV and probably from the 60s. By far the most efficient highs I ever ran at home or on a concert rig, and we regularly ran Martin and JBL! They were only rated at 20 watts each, but they more than held their own supporting 1000s of watts of folded horn bass and mid cabinets). Those alone earned you a subscriber!
