After all this time the Croft has landed

Well after must be two years the Croft OTL 3 Amplifier I bought has finally been collected and is at my home awaiting being added to my main system . Looks like I remember large and menacing but hopefully the sound will be as good as i remember .

I know this is not much compared to some of the tales like @Mondieand his speakers and this not as exotic as lots of what other Wammers own but I am really happy that I finally own an OTL and I have the ideal speakers to match them up with .

I also know that some of you like to see the working side of equipment so here is a picture with the base removed so you can see the wiring and components being used.

Strange to relate Glenn credits Futterman as the inspiration for his foray in to OTL's and apart from the really cheesy gold finish I believe all of his amplifiers sound very good indeed .

Glad to see you got it home in one piece. It was great to catch up yesterday, albeit only for a short time. Enjoy the Croft, you have waited long enough for it!
