Sloclone higain test

Mar09 - Yet another revision of this home built Amp, originally was a bassman style but designed a soldano type higain circuit to use the relative lower voltage tranformer to give more of brownish sound.

great juice man! :) you really did it. but wit the mids all the way is better.

ps. i'm getting a slo clone, custom made, how difficult is to get the resonance on potenciometer? that is the most important thing for me on an amp. my ooomph comes from a modified engl 2x12(mine is rearloaded) with bass flat it shakes air conditioner unit. thanx if you answer :) keep up experimenting

@brbo101 I found out the voltages make a huge diff. in these type amps. gotta have pretty high - about 350vdc on nodes. this amp had lower voltage PT so ended up with a 50k plate res on stage 1. Gonna go back and redo all voltages for other stages on this to see if helps. I'm doing another sloclone type thing now from a Fender PA135 - ultralinear PT which is pretty cool for this type amp. KILLS. Post your sloclone clips - love them. I'll post the PA135 slo soon. Thanks!

hi, do you happen to have the scheme with the modifications made in this amplifier? Congratulations are very good.

I don't have a schematic, I just triedseveral well known designs- plexi, 2204, trainwreck, bogner but ended up with more of a soldano style preamp tho w/ some odd plate resistor values. Prob will rip this out and try something else soon. :) I like to just try out different things to see how they change the sound. Thnks.

Sorry, it was built from a 1950's audio amp of somekind and I don't have any specs on the trannies. Someone originally built a bassman clone and I took that and began playing with multi-stage designs. I like those old heavy iron trannies, sometimes you get good stuff, sometimes not but usually don't have a lot of info on them.  thanks....

nice amplifier..i can see you used russian 6pi3s.

Great sounding amp AJ.  Willing to share design?

[thecookieman3000]

In all honesty, this is the best sounding amps I have EVER heard! A schematic would be awesome!

[thibaultabrial]

Your amp sounds awesome ;-)

[syberraith]

That sound better than Eddie's amps.

You care to share the schematic?

[matchoucampos]

Hi! I love this sound.

Is it possible to have more information about the schematic?

[EvilOdin]

that thing sounds pretty damn good man!

[sobellfanatic]

Wow! Awesome tone!
