Hi :)
Neither a toffee nor a computer but a mythical (and expensive) tube
amplifier.
when you can't afford it, raytrace it!

Nothing missing. What you see is a piece of aluminium slid over the first
tube for shielding.

Great amp!
One tiny little thing, the power tubes somehowe look a bit odd to me. If
it's the KT88 I'd expect the body to be a bit "fatter". If it's a modern
6550 it could be a bit rounder at the top. If it's a NOS 6550 it could be
a bit fatter at the bottom. Although I have to admit that I haven't played
with these tubes for some years now. Currently using an amp with 6C33's.
I'd like to see it switched on, glowing in the dark :)

inside top of it looks threaded, which looked a bit strange
fair enough, looking again you can just see the end of the pre-amp( i
assume) valve

There could/should be a spring in there to push the valve down in its
socket.

Wow, it is impressive. I think the wood is a bit unrealistic. Improving the
table's texture would make the image much more realistic.

Dunno! always the same mistake I guess: I began with a single EL34 and I am
spending hours trying to make the McIntosh work.

In this case I'd probably say "legendary" instead of "mythical"... I could
never afford one, but I've managed to squeeze an extra 35 years out of an
ancient Harmon-Kardon that someone thought was dead back in 1969.
Now all you need is to make it scratch-n-sniff ;-)
RG - solid state will never smell like warm tubes

Well I have to admit I never saw one of these tubes, I have only some pics
of the 275 but I'll take attention to your advice for future renders thanks

Well this means 2 arealights by valve that is 22 arealights... maybe for
2008 ;-)

you're right, I focused on the gear more than the furniture, I promise I'll
improve it

Hmmm... Maybe the server does not accept direct
access of the images.
The image can be found to the right in the second
row at this page:

Thank you for testing this.
I don't understand what is happening.
- Everything seems ok from here.
Can anyone could try to ping 194.63.250.45 for me ?
(And maybe someone could try a traceroute too ?)
In the meantime I have copied my website to here:
http://home.online.no/~t-o-k
The picture I mentioned can now be found here:

Just to be sure... this isn't a ray traced image is it? If it is my jaw is
on the floor.
Its a very nice image however it came to be.
Thanks for going to the trouble that you did to be able to share it.

Hehe - no it's just a photo I took of Ingo's valve
amplifier when I visited him in Holland a year ago.
