Here is how I'm rocking with Skunkie Designs.

Used lowest-priced parts to build. Sounds very good. First time ever electronic build. First to tube listening other than mom's old am table radio. My setup is the Tascam Profesional cd-400u , with am/fm tuner ,sd, sdhc,

usb, bluetooth playback connected to Skunkie Designs Color pre-amp with ge 12au7 's nos tubes and 

Electo-harmonix 6ca4 new rectifier tube. Into the 

Fossi audio v3 stereo amp to Cervin Vega E715 speakers 400 watts RMS with a a frequency response of 26Hz-20kHz and a sensitivity of 102 dB @ 2.83V. Very clean and crisp with a good raspy kinda sound. I've got the input pre-amp pot's at max. Ouput pre-amp pot turned down to adjustment for the Fossi audio v3 stereo amp. 

I keep the Fossi volume about 12 o'clock 

for 80 db ten feet away. Listening to Fm and CD. Zz top, BTO, Blackfoot, led zeppelin. 

I was thinking of. What about adding a tube 

spring reverb to something to the playback of recorded music, vocals. Having fun. Thanks for the information 

Skunkie. 

The best wishes Gary
