The picture colors don't really match what they look like. The Moreplay works very well with the amp. Resistances and voltages are spot on. Took a bit of time to change the basic design but, turned out great. Thanks to Bottlehead, PB, PJ, Doc, Eileen really nice product.

Looks great.
Modified? Works well with what amp? Inquiring minds want to know.

The Moreplay has a new top plate 13x8 to make room for the two 100uf temco can caps. They pair up to take the place of the last 220uf cap in the PS. They are recessed to match the height of the Transformer cover. The basic layout is the same but, moved around a bit to make it all work. Wood base is white oak 3" tall.
The amp is a Sakuma- Schade 6V6 design. It uses schade feedback and a 6V6 drives a 6V6 all pentode, 5AR4 rectifier. Also uses C4S on the input section.

Thanks for the compliments. I've had some time with the pairing now and really enjoy them. I tried the Moreplay in front of my JDS-Labs HP amp. The Moreplay gave it a SQ boost as well.
