Thanks for sharing those pics! Very cool to see the raw chassis. I just bought a PSE. You guys have convinced me. Can't wait to see how it does with my LP-27a. However, those chassis look to be oriented long-ways, as mine is slim with the length extending out the back. So it's much longer than it is wide.

These PSE's will be listed unless they are sold before Dennis can list them.
Yes you are correct Breakdown7 the chassis orientation on the new PSE's is different so you guy's have the only front to back ones (first edition).
The plan for the new PSE is to make a few at a time, so I will cut them and get them powder coated locally. We will be listing preamps soon too.

Thanks for the clarification and info Straitwire. I have a Salamander twin rack with a big VPI Classic turntable in the center the LP-27a on one side. The other side therefore has limited width space, so the First Edition PSE should fit just perfectly. I wouldn't have enough room for the new style chassis. My PSE should be here in about a week or two.

Well, I did sell my upgraded vintage HH Scott amp to buy one of Dennis' Inspire amps, and would have no reservation trying any of his former or current speakers. Would be fun if there are any floating around. And, it could save me from having to build a set. I'll take the dark wood set on the far right to match my decor.

They are a set of three prototype pairs that we built a couple of years ago. We looked at starting up a speaker business, but Dennis is busy with amps, and the other two of us couldn't come up with a FTE between us, so the idea is on ice for the time being. However, if you talk to Dennis, I'm sure that any of these three pairs could be liberated from their current whereabouts.....

Nice. That would work perfectly for the triode mode KT88 monoblocks I would like built. What is the tubeset planned for this one?

Those are nice looking speakers. Always enjoyed my Soliloquy 5.0i & 5.3 speakers back in the day. Worked very well with tubes.
