Just for fun, I opened that image using MS Windows' default photo editor (which long, long ago, was not too bad, but it gets worse with every 'update') and hit the "Enhance" button.

It doesn’t actually look blue like that in person. But it shows up nicely in a three second exposure.

Just wanted to say, I made a visit to the Mr. & Mrs. Lightman hacienda and got an earful of these beauties. What sweet glorious sound that came from them, such luxury.
Thank you for letting me invade your space.....

Here're a pair of Tungar tubes in a low voltage high current DC power supply (for field coil drivers) in a Dave Slagle enabled design.

You need some old McIntosh amplifiers, son -- the tubes in the 1950s and 60s Mac amps ran comparatively cool (yes, even the outputs). I think this was a combination of Mac amps operating in Class B (higher efficiency) rather than AB, coupled (no pun intended) with their unique output autoformer design.

NOS Sovtek 300B glow

Just added to the rack this afternoon:
Prima Luna EVO 400 preamp.
I’ve been looking to buy one of these for years and years, could just never justify pulling the trigger.
Well, I finally took the plunge! -

Man, the last time I heard one of those was down at Ted's place. That was when I unfortunately met Trey. My life hasn't been the same since. 😁
Wow, that was a long time ago...and a great Polkfest to boot! RIP, Ted. You are still missed.
