Wavelength Audio

Happy Holidays All! I am busy working on a product for another company. But I got a call from Echo Audio today about the Twin amplifier. I made only 2 pairs of this 300B parallel output with a pair of 300Bs, 6072A input tube, 6SN7 driver and 378 rectifier. This pair was made 11/1994 for CES 1995. When I was doing CES shows (16 so far) this time of year was crazy. You usually had to ship everything by the end of the month of DEC and not early because of shipping anything before xmas was well unlucky. Here they are if your interested in the build.

The Wavelength Audio Twin V1.4 mono amplifiers are single-ended triode designs built for pure, natural, and harmonically rich tube performance. Using directly heated triodes with no feedback and premium output transformers, they deliver exceptional midrange realism, dimensionality, and musical flow....

Hey everyone it's my BD today and I figured I better update what I have been doing. So I should have a Tube DI called the Cube DI because of it's shape and a pedal sized SS DI called the Direct Injection NGEN. But I found 2 sets of mono block chassis here at the office in the basement. Don't even remember making this size but they are mind condition so.... what to make. I will have 2 only Fully MagneQuest Iron, custom Silver Parallel feed amplifiers to sell soon. 6.5x12x3+Tube height. What tubes should I make in it?

Hey everyone, sorry been working hard on a few things. Should have a limited run of the 24 Guitar Amplifier done and ready. I found 5 solid copper chassis hidden in my basement at home and brought them over to the office, protos of a new Phono Stage in the works with NOS Peerless 15095 MC step up transformers for each one. I know that will make a certain person happy :) Was at Mirac today, they are my Contract Company that does my large order builds for Wavelength and what I design for AudioQuest here in the east side of Cincinnati. They have shipped Made in USA 1.1M products to AQ! Doing my part to build in the USA.... now drop the freaken tarrifs. Spent $700 on an order the other day $162 in tariffs!!! not happy.

First proto of a new guitar amplifier World Wide Amp. 18W Push Pull Magnetically Phase Coupled (MPC) 6V6, all tube 6072A, 6C4WA but a new high end switching power supply, 10lbs just what you need to carry in to a gig.

One of my first guitar amps. The Rob Fetters signature. I was told at NAMM in 2010 that I could patent the idea. Single 6550/KT88 running Class A/A2 to 25W using my direct coupled reactor follower design. Rob is playing a reunion show with the Raisins tomorrow night on the rooftop in Cincinnati with Bad Bob, Bam and RIcky. Picture my Ric Probst.

LunchBox DC12, 12W 6AQ7 Magnetic Phase Couple Push Pull amplifier. I had to make some room so no headphone on this one, but it does have the Direct Interface (DI) option.

Been playing around with some of these AC to DC switching power supplies. This one has a filament supply that comes on first and is very low noise. Then the HV is ramped up about the same speed as a 5AR4/GZ34 rectifier (about a minute). First up is a 12W 6AQ5 (smaller version of a 6V6) PP amp using a center tapped inductor as a phase splitter. A single 12DW7 (1/2 12AU7 driving the phase splitter, 1/2 12AX7 providing the input gain). This amp is killer super low noise. Also about six pounds lighter!

CES Triton New Century Edition in for a bit of a fix up 21 years later. Made like 60 pairs of these from 2000-2005. Massive 7Hz-38KHz at 14W output. Pushing the 300B to it's max at 36W idling (300B max is 40W). 6C45PI driving and 5AR4/GZ34 serving up the power.

Fire Marshall in yesterday at the office asked me to get rid of some of these boxes. Look what I found.... The Last Cosecant ever, this N2 is custom made with a custom power supply and 3 tested tubes (Westinghouse [Amperex] at 0.17dB match, Telefunken at 0.583dB match, Valvo 0.363dB match). These are all 3 of the types ever made, branded by many. MagneQuest output transformers and load chokes. In mint condition used at the last Florida Audio show. Other woods if interested. $3500

Quick update, migrating to MacBook Pro M4-MAX has been a bit daunting. Will finish the headphone amp with the MIO board first. The VM I use to layout circuit boards is kind of working on Win11-ARM so I can proceed.

Gang,
So I have been working on a MIO circuit board (Multiple IO) for the last 2 weeks. This has both analog inputs and a USB DAC on board. The idea is it can be used to create Preamps;
Minor: 3 differential RCA input, 1 usb DAC, 6418 DHT, RCA output.
Major: same but using WE101M/L I have tons of them.
Int: Probably 6V6 SE or some other pentode, 2 analog input + dac.
Headphone: same io as the preamp, output tube (417, EC99, 5687)? MagneQuest copper or silver option L or H output Z.

Jim I know what about phono... after these :)

Thoughts? Thanks!
Gordon

Ok proto 1 of a Tube Direct Interface. The next version will have a stepped attenuator 0-22dB and a power led on the front.
