   I did the power-supplies and filament voltage supplies for both the tuner and   
   the pre-amp. Together with the 35, a vintage Sony CD changer and an AR Athena   
   speaker system, they    
   will become my office system. Given that I spend 45 - 50 hours per week 'at   
   work', I may as well have a nice little system to provided background music.

   Reached 90 hours on the system as-installed today. No problems. And as there   
   is a continuous stream of vendors, colleagues and workers through the office,   
   I have opportunities to demonstrate tubes to 'new' people.
