Just another D-mble update. Pretty sure everyone is sick of seeing D-mble builds by now.
+ T-wreck express.
Since the the last #102 went to miniforklift, decided to have another for myself with a similar build quality to the JM amp. Instead of using F&T, It's using IC caps.
ODS: This is the RF model. This amp has been modded and slightly simplified (FET CIRCUIT REMOVED). also tried a different layout of components. Will upload more photos tonight. 6l6 50w with 25w half power switch..FW ETC..
T-wreck: Currently have the chassis and waiting for the other parts to be avail.
Also planning a Tweed ODS build in the next few months. Schematic -currently handwritten.

Do you guys prefer F&T or IC filter caps?

I think F&T have the "pedigree/price" but I'm all for caps that are good quality regardless of brand. Some get really picky over "tone" caps but that's another subject

I don't have a preference - I just go for the best that are affordable and available!!
