Looks great. You need a night time shot to show off the tubes.

How are you liking the sound?

[sdiesel77]

Really really like the sound of it.
It has a wide soundstage, detailed and warm tube sound with precise and punchy bass :)
It's really powerful, I can only bring the volume pot to maximum 1/4 then it's too loud.

Ahahah well spotted Fran!
It's to switch on or off the front screen (showing the bias for each KT90)
I wasn't sure I wanted to have it on non stop but actually I prefer it on [emoji16]
