Tweaks: | Built a crappy tube amp in one of my labs, i can see why some people make it their life's work 2 channel audio is boss but i was given a Stax SRD-6 energizer and SR-5 electrostatic headphones and i went ahead and took the energizer apart rewired it to bypass the output to loudspeakers, while rewiring i replaced the wires with equal length ones and seperated the tranformers from the circuit board to reduce EM interferance, also bypassed the fuse |

Learning how to build crossovers I made a 120AC-12DC converter out of old capacitors and such to hook up a car sub amp-600rms bridged to 2 12inch subs, just for parties though-never would i listen to them on my own time |
