A family project...awesome!
It's good to see the son wearing safety glasses.

What a great family project! It's great seeing the kids involved. My son is 3 and he's already shown a great interest in woodworking....just makes a father proud. *sniffle*
The THT LP turned out great. Love the finish on it too. IIRC, you have to do a mod on the BASH amp to remove/lower the lowpass...clipping a resistor or something like that. Did you do that or am I thinking about something else? Again, GREAT job!

Mike, thanks much. There are some tweaks with the resistors, but I haven't done them yet. I just set up the amp yesterday, and haven't tinkered with it much yet.

I'm sure you're having fun trying to knock plates off the shelves in the kitchen, right?Kelby wrote:Mike, thanks much. There are some tweaks with the resistors, but I haven't done them yet. I just set up the amp yesterday, and haven't tinkered with it much yet.
Muwahahaha! IIRC, those resistor mods take the lower freq range of the amp under 30Hz; there is quite a bit of LF content in movies from the past decade or so, particularly on BluRay. Enjoy!Re: Kelby's THT LP Build Thread

Looks really nice! 
I think it's great that you involved your son.
