Checking if there is any interested in a pair of Welborne Labs 300B DRD monoblocks.  Functions perfectly.  I'm the second owner so I'd rate it 8/10.

Hey!

   Good questions. :D

   I personally never heard these. But I have been using one of Ron Welborne's amps... the "Apollo" with Caddock and Jesen caps upgrade that I bought as kit for the past 9 years. :D

  So, I no doubt about the sound and parts quality of this DRD. :D

  Good luck with the sale yo2tup :D

Take care,

Does anyone know what it would take to make these UK compatible? I am moving to London in June and will need to buy some new electronics for the 220V. These might be the ticket.   aa

I think it just needs a couple wires to be swapped..  The electra-print transformers are rated from 110 to 240v.   I have the instruction manual for building these, so I'll look into it tonight.

Thanks!

Took a look at the instructions.  In order to convert it for 220v, a couple wires from the transformer to the terminal board need to be swapped and another wire from the transformer needs to be extended and soldered to the terminal board.  That wire needs to be extended because it is unused for 120v, so it was trimmed to around 3" to keep things from being too cluttered inside.
