Post Subject: The Super Milq’s electrons pool.Posted by Romy the Cat on: 12/16/2007
Yesterday I woke up and suddenly I feet liking to convert my second Super Milq in 6-chennals Super Milq. I kind of did not want to touch it for almost 2 month and yesterday it “got” me. So, I started: took all the unnecessary 3-chennals Super Milq guts out, changed the needed to be changed transformers, drilled the need holes and begun to-hook up input stage. It is kind of dirty and messy inside but it dives an idea about the grounding schema I use of the first stage. Pay attention that the local +400V terminal also has 8ga local cupper “buffer”.

I am not trying to pose myself as some kind of DIY guru, in fact I have little interest in the DIY knowledge but my objective is to make the Super Milq as silent as it could be. The first 6-chennals Super Milq, where I use absolutely the same techniques is not just quiet but it is absolutely silent in each channel, even if I stick my head inside the horns (people who use 110dB sensitive installations know how it works “usually”) - it is absolutely imposable to say if amp is on or off by listening the sound coming from Macondo. So I presume I do something right.


The “local” large copper mass in B+ does NOT do a “huge affect” but I feel that it does makes sound more “moisture” very slightly. I have no explanation why. A friend of mine call it “electrons pool” (he uselessly refer to electrons pool on cathodes) but I do not subscribe this explanation as I feel that electrons do not exist and the bogus believe about electrons was invited by Franz Kafka’ imagination while he was writing his chemistry papers during his sophomoric years.
