After I made the PM660 I went vari mu compressor crazy. Actually I just wanted a stereo unit and I wanted something with thirty tubes to commemorate the thirty years I've been playing with tubes.

Who helped you lift it into the rack :shock: or do you just put a grill over it and use it as a space heater :grin:
Go on then - you've twisted my arm - you can show us the insides :razz:

I see. It's a baad ass mo fo, fo' sure.

40 watt sidechain amp... PRR was just mentioning that in the 1954 Limiter thread. Something about needing lots of oomph in order to get the attack really fast due to the high impedence...? Is that part of the secret to the 670?

Those output transformers continue to amaze.

Poor David (Cannikin) is having a heart attack. David, the bathroom's thata way. Hurry, you can make it! Keep yer pants dry, bro.

OK, so what is the diff between the 660 and the 670?

 

[synthi]

660 is mono and 670 stereo?

That's what I've heard before too. But I find it hard to believe after looking at the 30 tube beast.

And hearing about the 40 watt sidechain amp...

We're not getting a 40 watt sidechain in the PM660.

Just wondering what differences there are.

cheers.

The sounds are closely related, which proves that this topology has a definite sonic imprint when compressing.

To chime in - Yes, please do make the PCB available!

 

[mrclunk]

Yes please!!

Volker, what pcb layout software are u using?, i need to do a layout for a few power amp. I've tried eagle, briefly, but its a little complex for my needs.

 

[[silent:arts]]

PCBs will be available soon, prototype PCBs are ordered and should arrive next week.

mrclunk, I'm using Target 3001 (smart)
with my own library of parts.

Analag,

This is FREAKING awesome and I can't thank you enough for being so generous with not only your time but your wonderful designs. I'm actually having to shelf my D-OAC now as my budget allows for only one more Valve Comp for this year and this seems to be it :green:

I know this is preemptive but as I'll be flying out to the US at the end of the month for Potluck Con I thought I'd kill 2 birds with one stone by ordering the 4 transformers needed for this project from Edcor and collect in person to save the international shipping fees.

Could you possibly give me the details of the needed transformers?

Again, THANK YOU for this project!

Cheers

Matt

I think Edcor should hire me to design projects around there transformers.
