Marc	McGohan M-10 amp. Any info? a bit.... Dan: Looks like a nice platform for your project. Try www.triodeel.com for the filter cap. It might not need one, right away. you could try to reform it with series resistance, Pull the 6v6's. the screw on connector can be removed and a 1/4" jack put in it's place. If it's got a fiber surround, and not a nut, you can gently twisted it out and have an isolated input jack hole. Before you do anything scetch out the schematic so you can reconstruct it back to the original circuit, in case you change your mind or in case you run into a snag that prevents it from working. Sometimes you can use the circuit as is or just modify the preamp and get good to great tone. Check out this schematic http://members.aol.com:/fyrebottle/schematics/arkay-deluxe.jpg I built this from an old hifi and the guy actually used it with his band, for the tone of it. Keep us posted on your progress... Marc
