Tube amp DIY general discussion

12 hours of non stop work of soldering and installation today, 40 hours total the ultra amp PSU is ready. Voltage testing is always exciting but thankfully everything was on spec from the first go.
For any DIY starters, double and triple check grounding and always use bleeders to drain the caps.
Employed a dual cascaded switch again, one for the heaters, the other for the rectifier and HV, everything on its own transformer, no exceptions.
There’ll be plenty of time to build a shell, for now just the bare frame will be perfect.
