Anybody tried doing this..If it really worked!!

Vintage valve amp - Who made it? [by groo]

Amplifiers/Receivers:: Vintage valve amp - Who made it?
Hi all! This is my first post so, greetings.

I wondered if anyone might be able to tell me something about this old valve power amp, which I dug out of a corner of my cellar this avo.
It came out of an organ, a pretty huge old wood-built thing with a pedal board etc. This is the only bit I kept apart from what I believe to be the drive/preamp board.

As you can see it's probably built in the 60's or thereabouts. The connectors are wired for mono input/output, and I doubt it's capable of stereo because the EL34's appear to be in push-pull setup. It's all built Manhattan-style so a bit messy.
The tubes are labelled: 6X5, 6SN7, two EL34s, GZ34. The smallest transformer I think is just an inductor, as it's labelled 10H 200mA.

I resoldered a some joints and hooked it up to a Tannoy Reveal, and was astonished that it sounds awesome.

Does anyone know who might have built it? There's no discernable make or model. I wondered whether it would be sacrilegious to replace some of the electrolytics with modern ones, or drill holes in the base for phono sockets and an IEC mains inlet?

Thanks guys, any thoughts welcomed.

Home Cinema, TV & HDTV:: System Solution Help Please
It depends on your budget of course but if you say your room hasn't yet been plastered I would take the opportunity to install cables for a full 5.1 or 7.1 surround system, it is worth looking into even if you cannot afford the system at the moment as it becomes a lot more difficult to install the cabling after the room is plastered. Then you would eventually want a 5.1 or 7.1 surround receiver that can also operate as stereo using just the front speakers. These receivers have DAB radio built in and will have enough channels to connect your laptop and iphone dock

Amplifiers/Receivers:: Amplifier hum!
Thanks for that. I've now connected the amp stud to the mains earth, but it's made absolutely no difference to the hum - which varies depending upon which 'input' is selected (on PHONO it is dreadful, and unbearable!!). Does anyone have any ideas on how to resolve this?
I'm using Technics speakers, which are connected to the 'A' terminals on the rear of the amp. Should greatly welcome any ideas!!!

Home Cinema, TV & HDTV:: connecting a laptop to a tv
Can you not just use the VGA output from your netbook into the TV..? Set your tv channel to the correct input, you may need to tell your netbook to output to VGA, this is a button that looks like a square with one vertical line either side. (Often on F4), By the way you will also need to do the audio, headphone cable to phone will do this for you. Good luck..
