Deaf Row!

Thanks, Geoff! Looks the same as the 'FX Audio Tube 01 [= '01 Tube' imported and given a logo and price rise? The tubes are the same too, 6j1s]

As it happens I was wondering about trying out a tube buffer the other day - your post reminded me so I'm following suit. I thought I'd place it after the analogue out of a Behringer UCA 202 USB audio interface [£15} and before an as yet unknown HPA or amp in an experiment in making a very cheap passable set up.

There are a number of far east sellers on ebay offering these. Prices vary. Some come with what are alleged to be UK power supplies, worth checking voltages and pins though.

Jez makes a good one apparently as well.. he made one for a member who was happy with it

Not for anywhere near that price I don't!! Mines £150.

£18 for that Chinese one? It would be around £400 if you bought it from me. The parts would cost me (including the case and PSU) around £70-£100 as I would be using good quality, branded western parts... The rest the labour to hand build it which would take 10+ hours. I also wouldn't put a crude and hardly filtered SMPS in the middle of the board! Expect it to give nearly as much output from the SMPS @ 30KHz or more as it does signal!!
