Music Angel "Yayi Amplification - Mini" EL-34 push-pull tube amplifier

-
Just received my Mini Music Angel "Yayi "from China, a 2 month wait. Unpack, put the tubes in, connect and plug in. Well, it lasted 4 hours. The next morning, nothing. Turns out, a fuse blew... to be continued...



Beautiful light show while it was working. A bonus is, if you install a shelve at the top on the amplifier, you can cook dinner while listening to your tubes! It's gets hot enough to keep your coffee warm to say the very least... Careful with that amplifier Eugene, 250 Volts.

      Hi, sorry thee for the "super" late reply.... I have used this amp for a total of 4 hours, during which time it sounded very good... But the next morning it refused to work. It has been sitting on a shelf ever since, since the cost of sending it back wasn't worth it... I think the tubes have to be changed... But I don't know for certain, the problem may be somewhere else. I checked the fuse and it's fine... Keep in mind the heat coming out of it while it was functional was intense, so, it's definitely not solid state and not so "practical".... One day I will have it repaired, but so far, I have had no compulsion to do so.

Changing The Fabric Of Your Vintage Speakers And Changing The Surrounds

Revamping My Four (4) Large Advent Speakers Changing The Fabric On the Large Advent Speakers This year I decided to put my Advents back in full working order. I own four Original Large Advents. Two of them were in storage for over 2 years, the other two were functional in the living room. I started by cosmetics. Not only was the fabric stained and discoloured, the cats had a field day piercing little holes in them.... The result were speakers that had lost their mojo. So I decided it was time to change the old fabric on the speakers. Since I intended to restore all 4 speakers and stack them, I had to make them look good as well as making them fully functional. So, I bought fabric. I looked around and tried to find a fabric that would look good on vintage speakers. Of course this had to done without braking the bank, I could always change them again later. So, I purchased the least expensive, best looking fabric I could find. I found a good source in China . Other places asked

Akai EA-G40 Stereo Graphic Equalizer, 8 bands. Used it for a while, but my current set-up doesn't really require equalizing, also, equalizers tend to add more wiring than I like in a system... I run everything flat, what you hear is what you get... K.I.S.S (Keep it simple and stupid)!
