RE: SE DC 2A3 Amp Re-Build, Progress 12-28-14

Thanks. I tried.

Certain electronic parts I just really "like" building with.

I don't think any different terminal strips would make an electronic or audible difference, so I use these, manufactured by Cinch.

I don't use them a lot, but I DO like using them here or there, neatens the build. Rats nest can be more electronically perfect, so I build a slight trade off, but wired in three-dimensions.

The seven 10 AWG to #6 ring terminals on my star ground are Thomas and Betts, I learned to use them at Dennis Fraker's suggestion, they sound "decent", and are made well.

This amp is to be for my use - going forward and LONG term, and I get to do whatever I like in there, but I gotta live with it. I "re-do" things when building, if I have the slightest doubt. For example, one yellow twisted wire pair in there, between the rectifiers, I fit and refit, shaped, NINE times 'till I was satisfied. In the end however, it makes me happy, just to LOOK at the finished piece, and know I did it.
