I think I mentioned it briefly before, but now that I've had 100+ hours into it...
The 596 rectifier is amazing. NOS it's bright slightly harsh for about 50ish hours. After settled it's |

BTW: my electronic waving of Benjamins got a quick response. As I said earlier with the chassis pics "something wicked this way comes". Somebody is going to be able to pick up a lightly used PSE and slightly more used 45 SET in the future. popcorn time and see how the movie plays out. |

Any advantage of the ceramic tube sockets vs miconel vs Teflon
The Belton Micalex glassfiber filled 8 and 9 pin sockets we use now are great but you need to inspect the 8 pin to make sure the pins are twisted enough to hold them in the body and if not you just finish the twist (rarely happens) The 4 and 5 gold pin ceramic ones we use are also good but because they are ceramic they need to be checked out for defects such as misshapen holes or chips around holes and improperly or not fully inserted pins, but if needed I just re-insert the pins properly. now having said that I actually haven't seen any bad ones in a while. As far as Teflon with gold pins go I have not used those so I don't know if they are better or not and I don't know the mounting hole spacing. The output tube socket holes are 1.25" and the mounting holes are 1.6"center to center, in case you had something special in mind hmmm...now I'll be up late lookin' at tube sockets |

That being said, there are exceptions. Speakers with very light cones, like Lowther or Coral Beta seem to do well with very low power. Another is the Omega RS5 driver. This 4.5" full range driver is a nominal 94.5dB, but has a superlight 1.8 gram cone and does very well with as little as two watts. |
