Tube headphone amplifier

Finished a nice DIY kit. This time a tube headphone amplifier.
The two 6J5 triodes look fine !

After the triodes, low noise ic's NE5532P take care for more amplification.

Now I just have to find a simple power supply unit capable of delivering +/0/- 15VDC to get it to work.

View of the "Sint Lievensmonstertoren" in Zierikzee.

Zierikzee is the capital city of the island of Schouwen-Duivenland in the province of Zeeland; the island just below the island where I live, Goeree-Overflakkee.


Sint Lievensmonstertoren, Zierikzee

The start of the construction of the tower was in 1454. The original design shows that the final height should have been 130 meters, but due to a lack of resources this value was never reached. 62 meters is the height at this moment. Nevertheless an amazing achievement of the people in the 15th and 16th century.

  2. Hallo Patrick, dan heb je zeker Zeeuwse 'roots'. Trouwens Zeeuws-Vlaanderen ligt dichter bij Brugge dan bij Amsterdam😉
