Making an amp Louder!

1/28/2000 1:35 PM
Mook	Making an amp Louder! I just finished Stephen Delft's Moonlight amp. For the front end, I did 1st stage into 6SL7 into a regular Fender tone stack into the 2nd stage of the 6SL7. From there it pretty much follows the latest Moonlight schem. At first fire-up, it worked great, but is a bit to low in volume. It's rated at 1 watt, but I would have expected a bit more volume - not much mind you, but just a bit more. Any advise on increasing volume? My first thought would be to dump the Fender tone stack..... Thanks, Mook

Making an amp Louder!

I just finished Stephen Delft's Moonlight amp.

For the front end, I did 1st stage into 6SL7 into a
regular Fender tone stack into the 2nd stage of the
6SL7. From there it pretty much follows the latest
Moonlight schem.

At first fire-up, it worked great, but is a *bit*
to low in volume. It's rated at 1 watt, but I would
have expected a bit more volume - not much mind you,
but just a bit more.

Any advise on increasing volume?

My first thought would be to dump the Fender tone
stack.....

Thanks,
Mook
