How did I miss this post!!

Super cool. Love it. That would be so cool on stage too!

Is it all working now? I'd love to see the gut details & the pics.

Oh so cool :shock: :shock: :shock: 8) 8) 8) 8) 8) 8) 8) 8)
I'm going to place the heat shrink as you did on my Triwatt on the board, I'm curious, since the Triwatt is so sensitive to lead dress :lol: :lol: :lol:
Gotta get those radio waves the heck outta there :lol: :lol: :lol:


Oh, and take the night lite and make a Trinity label that the colors will show through.
Be absolutely incredible on stage.

Very cool ; very cool

Out of curiosity I'm not understanding the power supply!

You have a single rackmount for the amp. The power supply is in a different chassis. Does that take a2 more mounts to house that separately????? :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: :? :? :? :? :? :? :? :?
You know me takes the old sledge hammer to work now :shock: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Thanks
Sorry

Thanks Jac.
I wanted this rack format for my own studio use, since space is at a premium at Velour™ Studios. I just don't have the room for combo's and/or amps and various speaker cabs piled everywhere. This will allow me to play and work the controls right from the mix position and mic up a cab in my iso-booth while monitoring the amp through the system and hear it just as it will sound recorded.
To answer your question, yes, the rack section and PSU are 2 different chassis and will be connected via a fairly intricate Mil-spec cable. I'm hoping to get the PSU in the bottom of the rack somewhere since I'm controlling all power, etc. from the "head" section via relay anyway. I have some concerns still about this design but I'm remaining optimistic :D

Stephen, the rack unit is nearly done, just some very simple wiring left. Pics will come soon hopefully...

How will you deal with the AC (=noise) heater voltage or will you use DC for the heaters or a seperate transformer for that inside the rack chassis?

Right now I'm planning a separate shielded/twisted pair in the PSU to heater interface cable for the heaters. If I have noise problems I can balance the heater supply or go the DC route if need be. I'll try the simple approach first :o

And everyone will want it like the "Triwatt", because. How cool will it be to put a tube "Trinity" in a rackmount, SWEET!!! :D :D :D :D :D :D
