Steve White's handcrafted custom 1960's style console stereo by E E Amps.

Here is a 1960's style custom console stereo I built displaying the vacuum tube amplifier right next to the Garrard type A turntable. The 807 tube amplifier has a conservative output of 30 watts per channel and uses 6SN7 and 12AU7 pre amp tubes. The speakers are a pair of Jensen 15" drivers and a pair of DeForest 3" tweeters in each cabinet. The entire project took two months to build.

Great!
Forget the 6V6, 6L6 and KT88, the 807 (aka VT100A, QE06/50) is an outstanding audio beamtetrode too.
Even a bass boost when Vs (250V.) is stabilised by the tube stabilisers OD3 (150V.) and OC3 (105V.), and even a more flattering sound with a mercury vapor rectifier!
Viva 807!

My First Vacuum Tube Stereo Amplifier on 6c33cby Fuckertrezv4,208 views
Is that the preamp visible and power amp inside the cabinet? Awesome custom work! It rocks! I have the same lab series A changer in my console, they are built like tanks. My console is solid state but I love the sound of my jukebox tube amp.

No, that's the power amp and the line stage preamp you see there. The power supply and the phono stage-preamp are inside.

Very nice example of an original idea with a stock console. Is there no problem having the amp so close to the Garrard? What type of cart and speakers? Green with envy...

Thank you very much for the flattering comment!
There is no problem at all with the amp near the turntable. The cartridge is a MM Grado 'Red' and the speakers are a pair of 15" Jensen drivers and a pair of DeForest 3" tweeters.
