I'm sure Gavin aka es347 won't mind
Rene uses classic circuits and will use whatever parts you will provide or ask him to source for you. What I love Rene for is, as dimfer pointed out, is his fanatical attention to his point to point work. The man won't stop until his builds are dead quiet, at least to the point where practically only unavoidable thermionic noise is left.
For this build I provided the caps, AN OPTs, internal wiring and binding posts. Power Ts are Tamuras. Circuit is AN. The tubes shown are his own used for testing. My tubes are WE reissues since my 1950's WEs measure all over the place and finding a matched quad of these is impossible these days. I use these amps with 96db sensitive Ribbon Hybrids from Tony Moore in Australia. Biased a bit conservatively the 15 watts in practical use is more than enough for relaxed listening with lots of inner detail and textural layering. The whole project cost me about 3 thousand dollars. I'm not saying it sounds as good as or the same as a real AN at 10 times the price but I will say it's good enough for me not to want one.
Another builder of note is Rod Teope aka Mang Rod whose products go under the brand name TrodT. Rod cooks up his own circuits and hand winds his own transformers. His only issue has been with hum. Past customers never really demanded less noise. These days however his customers have become more and more demanding (can you say Dimfer? LOL) and he now puts lots more energy in that department. The prototypes of dimfer's parallel GM70s were tested in my main system. It was very good but noisy. By the time Dimfer got his production version you had to put your ear to the speakers to hear the noise. I'll give him a few more months and he should hopefully be down to thermionics and RFi.
Joey's plinths are based on the Shindos. Joey is another guy who is fanatical about detail. Joey is a businessman and woodworking is just his passion. He is however a Mechanical Engineer as well so he definitely knows his power tools. He makes some very good bass enclosures of his own designs as well as plinths. It's a good thing he does TRX like a madman because he hand polishes his lacquers and we know what kind of elbow grease that entails.
