Well...yeah!
It's got 5 12ax7's ladies and gentlemen (chomp-chomp-chomp)
I don't care what it looks like on the inside. The TSL was great (lot of complaints but I never had a problem with the AMP) - if it's on par with that I'll be happy.
12 "channels" crammed into one headshell...I'm expecting it to be a block of PCB material with silver dots and surface mounted components...lol

Brace yourself for the hate that will be thrown once gut shots are posted...It's gonna be flamefest '07 in this place...what do people think, you can do all that switching with tube relays?

Yea , I think people are expecting a Holy Grail of an amp here. It's only 1500 bucks. It's not gonna be the end all be all of amps. There is no such thing for most people. I think we will see alot on ebay in a couple of months. I'm sure it's a killer amp...but you amp guys know how it goes.

NICE SHOTS!!!
I figured it'd be packed in there pretty tight, but man, that is REAL tight!
Looks like the boards will be easier to replace/repair/remove, should one ever need to.
Must study closer!
If I was to take a guess, that 2nd and 3rd picture is showing the bias control - CON1, VR1/VR2.

PTP is 100x more forgiving than PCB. If you screw up a PCB, you wasted a lot of money on engineering something that can't be fixed easily.
Also, soldering PCB is harder than PTP - you have to be more careful with PCB.
It's economics - PCB is more expensive to R&D, and many don't have that kind of funding.

I agree, but Marshall really stopped PTP in around 1973, it's just now all the boutique builders use PTP because there is a strong belief that PTP is better. I would probably cringe if I looked at the inside of a JVM but hey, I don't build em

Of course it won't be the be all end all amp, there is no such thing and probably never will be. Too many different players and opinions for that happen, and that's a good thing. As far as being PTP, no one is expecting that and what difference does that make anyway? Would we really expect an amp with 4 independent channels and 12 switchable modes to be PTP? :?simbasa":28729 said:

Looks pretty clean for how complex it is.
All the tubes appear to be mounted on that one main board it looks like, unless the power tube sockets are chassis mounted above it...
