My first roll of film through my Yashica Electro 35 GSN Considering ISO 100 film the old f1.7 lens is working at wide open.
Elektro, one of the most photographed mechanical men, was produced by Westinghouse Electric Corporation in 1939 for the New York World's Fair. Elektro's faithful companion, the dog Sparko, with two motors, could beg, bark and wag his tail.
Amp is a take on a Mullard 5-20 using a 6CG7 as the phase splitter with a CCS in it's tail. It uses a NOS GE 6267, Electro-Harmonix 6CG7 & 6CA7 and a Sovtek 5AR4. Output transformers are Sowter UP21S. (tapped version of the UA21)
Power tansformers are primary windings for a mullard 5-20 and the chokes are made by VVT.
I've now tried Tung-Sol EL34B, JJ KT77 and these 6CA7. They all sound good but I have to admit to really liking these 6CA7's a lot.

This "triaxial", essentially an SP15 woofer with a T35 tweeter, will need at least 20 cu. ft. to sound its best. Currently, it will be driven while sitting inside my closet until I can find a way to convince my better half that I need a speaker cab the size of a refrigerator.

Acabamos de "rescatar" esta cámara del baúl de los recuerdos xDDDD
Intentaré hacer alguna foto aunque no sé si lo conseguiré porque carretes aún venden pero las pilas que usa... en fin, ya veremos xDD
Seen from the Highline; LIRR (Long Island Rail Road) DM30 AC dual mode locomotives 504, 500 and 521 wait out the off peak period in the Hudson Yards on 15 September 2017. These EMD built diesel electric locomotives are capable of drawing power from the third rail, so that they can operate in the New York tunnel system serving Penn station.
