Amp kits????

Re: Amp kits????

I think I recall you saying that amp didn't have much headroom at all to it. Let me pose this question....building a louder amp shouldn't be any more complex than building a lower wattage amp (assuming other features are the same), correct?

Did you buy the enclosure or build your own with the 5E3?

I'm intrigued as heck with amp building, but I don't believe I have the time to dedicate to it on a regular basis (or even a semi-regular basis) right now.

Definitely not enough headroom. If you need more, get Bruce's 35 watt tweed kit.

Bruce has lent his design to WEber for a 6L6 version of the 5E3. Bigger trannies, but still a small 1x12 package. It's suppoed to fill the gap between the 5E3 adn the 5E5A.

I buy my enclosures from others. I got my 1x15 tweed enclosure from Bruce. I got the 1x12 from some guy in Tennessee.

I've also used both Mojo and Weber for enclosures with equal success. Good luck.
