Cary used to wire their amps point to point. I don't know for sure if that still holds true, although I think it does. I do know that my Cary SLP90 (pre) is wired point to point, but the SLP05I recently picked up is PCB.
Vintage tube sound from a modern amp
I am just collecting names of makes and models of tube amps that harken back to the older classic tube sound but have modern chassis, connectors etc. Any such amps you guys enjoy?
So far names that have come up are Cary SLI series, CJ Art and classic 62/120.
Many tube companies are pushing more and more to a neutral and fast airy (thinner) sound. So its becoming increasingly difficult to find gear with that classic sound the exemplifies the beauty of music.

@oddiofyl , that one is a looker. If it sounds like it looks, I bet it is killer. |
@oddiofyl Certainly beautiful. I wonder what the internals look like. I think I reached out before but didn't get a reply about internals. |
Hi I promised Matt not to show internal pics, he sent plenty along the build but those are "his" pics. He does have construction photos on his site and on Insta and FB that that speak to the quality of build. It’s first rate inside too. No zip ties or double face tape holding things. He uses clever use of stand offs to mount all internals. Everything is done on custom made point to point turret boards It’s as nice on the inside as it is on the outside, built by someone who clearly loves what he does .... |
