this'll be it.
that's really cool!
I want to see if i can find spec's for this
i'd love it in just a head format - and use separate cabs.
that being said - isn't this just a Mono in stereo out?
or do you end up using both Hi and Low inputs if you were going stereo in front end..
EDIT: it's mono input
I'm trying to essentially mimic what creation have (not exactly) but just the idea, of having 2 seperate single channel amps with no bells and whistles like trem, effects loops, reverbs etc.
just want 2 inputs and 2 outputs
here's a schematic for the trace:

Re: Stereo Amp head
I've nearly started something like this a couple of times. Just 2x AX84 power amps http://www.ax84.com/corepoweramps.html , or the Harmless power amp http://cuamps.com/harmless.html is a bit more complete.

Re: Stereo Amp head
is there an "easy" way to alter a 5E3 or some other Single Ended circuit to clean up the signal, give more headroom?
wondering what sort of "simple" clean circuit I can find that will get close to the single 12AX7 + 6L6 idea that Creation are using - no fluff, just volume and single tone knob Stereo setup.
Building guitar's piece of piss.. building amps.. fine with a circuit diagram and pictures.. but altering a circuit is above my pay grade.

Re: Stereo Amp head
I'm not sure about this mod but you can basically reduce the cathode bypass value to 4.7uF or was it .047? lol or less and/or reduce the coupling caps.Mine has been modified for more headroom + just added the twin preamp.SimpleSi wrote:is there an "easy" way to alter a 5E3 or some other Single Ended circuit to clean up the signal, give more headroom?

Re: Stereo Amp head
Given your guitar is mono, what's the value in stereo here?
Is this to sit behind a stereo delay or similar and then just saving you carrying a 2nd head?
Aside from being an interesting project, sounds like a lot of effort for no real benefit.

but yeah, the last 3 parts of my board are stereo.
Mobius> Timeline>Bigsky > Stereo Sum Box
that way I can go stereo out, or Mono if i want without re-wiring my board.
But yes - to avoid bringing 2 amps, and as a bit of a project.
Next question would be.. I wonder what transformers I'd have to go for.. ie; would i have to double up on output Transformers or just get a grunty-er one and Parallel it's output. (current in series vs parallel)
