    Melos MA-222 Tube Preamp info needed

    This pic is the prelim setup of the power supply. After debugging the preamp box, I'll clean up the wiring and do some noise testing. No AC leaves the ps so we'll see how quiet the pre is. The power supply boards are set at 6.3vdc, and 200vdc for the High Voltage.

    Melos MA-222 Tube Preamp info needed

    Got some work done on the Melos. I replaced all 26 of the gold plated RCA's, replaced a bunch of caps and transistors, installed the cables for the power supply to preamp which I reworked and installed a left and a right power supply boards. The wiring is pretty much temporary and will redo it...

    I told the wife if she didn't give me some time off I was going to sell the Harley since I didn't get many miles last year. Gonna pull it out of storage and get it all cleaned and polished (I'll get caught in the rain and ruin my spit-shine), fresh fuel and install the battery, it's gonna be 70...

    I finally got my watch in one piece and I have to give Jim a BIG SHOUT OUT for getting it presentable. I hade somebody polish it local and it's probably Over-Polished but it had some pretty big scratches in it from 1967 to present. I think it turned out killer. I put a new aftermarket band...

    Melos MA-222 Tube Preamp info needed

    No sweat Joe, I found a Power Supply board for B+ (250VDC) and the 6.3VDC heater voltage and they are green. I'll be building the boards soon. The power supply is adjustable and should work for the 2 voltages I need for the preamp for left AND right. The big old toroid I have is overkill but...

    Naw, it's just a project, maybe a garage system. I have a 700 II waiting in the wings and who wouldn"t want a blaster in the garage?? That way when I'm on the riding mower, I can still head-bang..... :) I won't get rid of my Acurus RL-11 preamp. so the tube pre is for fun (free fun).
