    "I didn't say Terry had a biased opinion, I said he had an opinion on the bias!" 🙂
    Terry, you've pointed out before about watching for mistakes in documentation and schematics, in particular polarity of capacitors. Thank you for doing that, it's such an important part of troubleshooting and repair.

    Commander Terry at the helm taking us to visit the red planet Lyticap. Nice catch on the schematic error. Great restore
    and custom mike and output upgrade.

    Terry,
    The 6-pin connector for the speaker is readily available from Amplified Parts. It is the same 6 pin plug used for Leslie speakers

      Looks like a 6pin tube socket, in which case you can just find any dead-tube that will plug into it and harvest its base to get a plug.

      Came here to say the same thing. Very common connector for Leslie speakers and Hammond cabinets.

    Never heard of the company which made it, but that is a really stylish and nicely laid out little amp. Love the Spartan yet slightly Art Deco graphics.

    Great intro D-Lab. Cool little amp. I saw in one of your replies that it belongs to a harmonica player. I can definitely see that amp being ideal for blues harp through a mic.

    On the speaker 6 pin plug- I have made up many of them from the bases of the old large pin tubes I had saved that were bad.

    It's interesting that it's a single ended amp with fixed bias.

    That speaker socket is a ux 6 pin socket aka pre octal.

    Great little amp Terry. Do you have to modify the input for guitar?

    Hi Terry...In a previous video you spoke about your younger days and how you started by learning/studying from a phamflet that came with a Heithkit preamp...
    Excuse my naivety but that's where I am on my journey.
    How can I find that resource?
    Thank you for your time
    Kenneth

    • @d-labelectronics

      There is a Heathkit website that has manuals you can review. Focus on the basic kits they began with

    Standard service stuff.......... replace anything that's NOT stock value, and the components that fail with age. Then the world is a happy place.

    Jest like a 1950s B-Movie we can see the strings holding up the space ship.
    Joking aside I like your videos and humorous interludes Terry PS more amateurish s..t
