Title: Where are the pretty meters from? Post by: K6JEK on March 16, 2005, 12:34:54 AM I was looking at some high end audio stuff. It all has gorgeous, backlit meters. Where do they find those beautiful meters?

I wanted one to monitor the plate current for a 300B HB audio amp I built several years ago, and I hunted for a year before I found a suitable one. Any hamfest will turn up a hundred or so regular-faced meters, but I nab backlit ones whenever I see 'em.

For awhile the anode heatsinks I see on some of these tubes reminded me of something but I couldn't put my finger on it then all of a sudden it came to me. They remind me of the cylinder heads I use on my RC cars and trucks. Nice Picture Bruce. |
