Starting a new build

 

[Whoops]

Looks pretty good.

What board is that?
The layout looks much more interesting than most of the offers around for the a DIY U67

 

[dmp]

I designed and got the first samples this week. No major mechanical problems yet.

 

[Whoops]

Congratulations for your work,
it looks pretty good.

Is that a Moby transformer?

 

[dmp]

Yes Moby's transformer. STY-5 body.
Waiting on the tube socket now

Starting a new build

Boards are looking great. Do you plan to release it as a DIY project or it's just for your personal build?

 

[dmp]

I don't know if it works yet!
I could share some boards if there's interest from others.

I'm sure people will like to have such a nice U67 boards. Especially if you can give DIY build support.

Very nice project ! Sure it will get interest if you offer it as DIY. I too would love to get these boards.

I have 2 early versions of the NadyTCM 1050’s (no tube socket) earmarked for possible U67 conversion (IF I can
make everything fit) …

Your boards look great … and yes … I would be interested !

I've just started looking into a U67 build. I would be interested thanks.

looks good!
will ferrous screws effect response of transformer?

will ferrous screws effect response of transformer?

Those are the screws that came with the transformer from Moby. I think they a stainless. I did a copper pour on the upper board, intending to ground the transformer core, but the copper pour was not exposed(but it could be scraped to ground the screws/core). It looks like original u67s had this. I'm curious what Moby or others would recommend.

Again, no worries. I use same material as the genuine one.

not to jump on the bandwagon (oh why not?) but I would also be interested in a pair of the board sets. It is a very nice design, looks robust!

Thanks, and (self serving) best wishes for success!!!
