211 heat
Posted: Sun Sep 04, 2011 7:50 pm
Hi All,
I've been lucky enough to be doing a restoration job on a very nice 211 amp. Its hard to believe the size and heat of these things when they're up and running!! As an example, a KT88 (not a small valve) seems tiny in comparison!!
Anyway, I was sitting yesterday evening listening and the sun was slanting in through the windows. There was this lovely heat shimmer reflected on the walls, I took a quick clip:

Definitely an amp to leave on the top shelf!!
