Hi Miguel, You're well acquainted with the Little Pinkie so I'd like you to compare your version with a slightly different one if you would? I've been "transformer" rolling and would appreciate your opinion on this one..... It's a chassis mount job (as opposed to the encapsulated type) and I think it sounds marginally better (particularly in the bass and clarity departments)....... Apart from the new transformer there is further attention to detail such as ferrite beads on the output leads, specially selected values of EVOX suppression caps across the line, fixed output lead and flush mounted rocker switch etc..... The "white" rocker switch on this model is unique..... normally they will be the red and black type: The white switch denotes "Number one tester" and will be the only Little Pinkie v3 i ever with a white switch. Let me know what you think Miguel. A few pics:

Mike, it will be my pleasure to compare it with my Little Pinkie V2. Let me know what you need from me in order to proceed. Thanks for your trust. Note: I only have an X-Can V2 left. I sold all my V3 series equipment. I will ship it with the valves Miguel The Pinkie for X-Can v3 is different in that it utilises higher quality (thicker) output cable..... unfortunately, you are limited to what you can use with 2.1mm DC plugs...... current pinkies are utilising heavy duty "Xtra-Guard" alarm cable (made in USA) but it's a bugger to work with as it keeps wanting to coil up on itself so I am currently experimenting with Oxygen Free XLPE cross lined polythene insulated, aluminium foil screen, matt abrasion resistant PVC/neoprene jacket stuff....... certainly a lot more flexible and looks pretty snazzy too (red cable, red switch..... red feet next?) Anyways, I'm waffling will ship soon man.

Hi Mike did not post anything since I am waiting to receive the resistors and ferrite beads, after installation and burn in the results will be posted. They should be with you shortly Miguel.
