Default 5F1 TwinChamp 68 is coming

Six months ago I built a TwinChamp 210, this has become my living room amp.

Now I'll try to build a little Champ with 6 "and 8" Weber speakers.

Looks good. I would love to know more about the amp itself. Is it a kit? Did you build it your self? Sound clips??

No, this is not a kit, the first amp I have been build is a kit from Tubampdoctor,
this amp is build by klone-valveamps because this amp is for sale and must work with no doubt and warranty.
Sound clips comes later.

It looks wonderful! Is that an old tube radio cab?
And the other amp in the background, looks like an old radio too.
Excellent job V!

In this case, it's not necessary for it to sound as good as it looks. Looks are enough....drool.
