Lovely
Put my name down in the hopefully orderly queue that is forming. I already sent you an email on this Will.
Please consider putting the power switch on the side where the bias controls are. The 'front' side.
Will you be adding the additional protection circuitry you did on my STA25?

So we happened to be near Radford HQ last week, Will and Steve (Will's dad) kindly allowed us to visit.
Will kindly played some music through a near completed STA100 to his RFC Raptor speakers.
Absolutely magnificent. I could write lots of words but will confine it to following - massive presence, fluid, ease, dynamic.
The amp itself is huge, as usual the rebuild Will has performed is impeccable. As is his workshop - neat and orderly.
I was also very impressed with the RFC Raptors. Wide open sound able to convey music perfectly. The finish is first class.
Overall to both items ...

The amplifier has been complete for a while, but as the original anodised legend panels were a bit worse for wear, I had to spend a bit of time re-creating them in a vector editing package and have some fresh ones made. I will post a bit about that soon but for now here is the amp completed with the fresh panels! This amplifier also features some special output transformers of my own design.

Wow!
Gorgeous.
It is impossible for anything digital to sound analogue, because it isn't analogue!
Beautiful work Will. Having seen the insides of mine this is night and day.
Ouch, that is almost painfully nice!
Serious iron
Superb work. Love the way these are put together. Bordering on perfecion

Oh my god! There's nothing wrong with the bidet is there?
“Nothing discloses real character like the use of power. It is easy for the weak to be gentle. Most people can bear adversity. But if you wish to know what a man really is, give him power. This is the supreme test. It is the glory of Lincoln that, having almost absolute power, he never abused it, except on the side of mercy".
“You see these dictators on their pedestals, surrounded by the bayonets of their soldiers and the truncheons of their police ... yet in their hearts there is unspoken fear. They are afraid of words and thoughts: words spoken abroad, thoughts stirring at home -- all the more powerful because forbidden -- terrify them. A little mouse of thought appears in the room, and even the mightiest potentates are thrown into panic.”
"You don't have free will. You have the appearance of free will.”
“There's a war out there, old friend. A world war. And it's not about who's got the most bullets. It's about who controls the information. What we see and hear, how we work, what we think... it's all about the information!”
