OK Danny, you made me do it. I bought this new from Jud Barber ~2002 (I think, I'd have to check)... Joule Electra VZN-80 OTL amp.

As for those Otica... oh man I bet they love sum tooobs...

They look like dragsters ready to race!

Chris always spoke of such legend from years past of blue Dodd tube amps. Those definitely look like they lived up to the hype. Too cool.

I had the pleasure of hearing those amps back in the early days of RMAF. I always waited until after the show was done for the day because Danny and Gary were always up late having fun with friends in the room. Good times. They sound as glorious as they look.

Freaking awesome! I don’t have the fancy bypass caps in my NX Oticas but the sound is still amazing to me, even with just plain old sealed subs.

That's what I found with my NX-Oticas - first impressions are they play in a whole other level than the old stuff. And later on they get better and better as all the parts burn in and placement gets dialed in.

You'll find that when you push them, they are a lot like the Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat. Just insane amounts of torque and power on tap.

On the flip side, they also do quiet and intimate music REALLY well. It's pretty astonishing, actually.

Updated top post with new pics and sound clip.

Now that the Studio's are up and running I tried "All Channel Stereo" on my Anthem AVR and wow, what a surreal experience.

Beautiful job. Can you share how you prepped the edges and joints as well as what you used to paint them?
