Motorola amp, with DG-SE1 internals.

 
Went through all 23 pages here and thought I would share pics of my tube amps.

My wife and I recently moved into our current home and these pics were taken after staging the equipment for its permanent placement and while waiting for my new Morrow balanced interconnects to arrive, hence the "clean" look.

Thanks Bill, it was the year I was born.....so getting there myself!

I meant to insert your quote here...but somehow missed it...
 
All the pictures of these wonderful tube amps are inspiring! Awesome thread...

I'm just getting my feet wet with the tube sound, trying out entry level Chi-Fi preamps and am really enjoying it so far.

Here's what I'm using in my computer near field and headphone setup... I swapped out the stock Peking tubes with Russian 6N3P's

My pictures also went away with the forum upgrades, apparently.

Here's some of amps that I built. Note, these are all builds-from-scratch. I will put up some of the resto-mods and the restorations in other posts.

And, the "pure restorations" (just rebuilt to stock with new/improved components as needed):

Is that all? Or did you cut and paste an entry from Encyclopedia Galactica? :) Thanks for posting Gordon. It would be great if we could click on each one and see the work you've done underneath.
 
Thanks! I had a lot of help from folks here and from Shannon and Tom McNally. It was my first full tube amp build. I hope to eventually give it a wooden chassis.
