MagneQuest into 2008!
MagneQuest
has been making the finest transformers for over 18 years, yet our roots
run much further back, to the heyday of transformer design. We own Peerless
and Acrosound with all the countless hours of design work and papers.
Our history runs deeper than any other transformer maker in the world.
Please see the
latest happenings via the our new MQ News
page including details on our ROBIN HOOD MQ
iron. And dont forget to drop by the new MagneQuest
Forum at Audio Asylum. See details on our MQ News page.
Look for some exciting new DIY action with a great project that
is simple as simple gets - this a push-pull amp with SET parts count!
Dr. Lessard has changed his circuit yet again, and we just now received
the latest pic - See below.
The driver is
a 6C45-pi. The phase splitting is done with the excellent MQ EXO-173.
The PSU is tube rectified. Output Iron from MagneQuest of course, this
consisting of the heavy duty MQ/Peerless S-240-A Permalloy (available
in M6 and Pinstriping as well). All of this is wrapped in a beautiful
hand polished Zebrawood chassis! It's TRIODES with an ATTITUDE.
And the best part? It's going to be fully documented with step by step
instructions and photos, all provided by resident MQ DIY loon, Jean-Francois
Lessard, the Quebec City, French-speaking nomad, now locked in a frigid
106 year old uptown brick workroom garage, nicknamed "The Ice Box."

Hope you made it to VSAC
2003 in Silverdale, Washington last October as it was
the BEST VSAC yet. There was GREAT tube gear on all fronts with
the Bottlehead room receiving a BEST OF SHOW from Positive Feedback
Online. Highlights powered by MQ included gear from Bottlehead,
Wavelength Audio, eXemplar Audio, and ole George of Wright Sound,
with his usual bevy of high value, solidly engineered amplification.
