I just went ahead and ordered a Crux add-on for the DC7, it will do 2700mA at 9v. Saves me wiring up an edison tail on the back of my powercon jack that I mounted to my board.

We need detailed sound reports on this like ASAP! Ideally yesterday please!
One of the switches (the XLR Out switch) is actually mislabeled, the labels are swapped per the actual function of the switch.
No you didn't, it hasn't gone up for sale yet.
I would have loved to implement a nice 8x10 IR into it, but honestly I was never fully satisfied with the way I had done it on the Venus X, so I'm not planning to put IR into any more of my pedals until I have it more fully figured out.
I'm actually including these power supplies at no charge with SBVT II because the power requirements are more than a single output from a Cioks supply can handle, so I want to make sure everyone has a reliable power supply right out of the box.One thing that I really like is that Nathan will add a power supply with the pedal that can easily drive any of his pedals for only $13 extra.
I'm not sure that I should mention that you can buy the power supply by itself for $13 in the C2CE shop now since I am going to order 4 power supplies for myself as soon as I can order his latest PCB that he is releasing, now that I have mentioned it there might not be any left when I want to order them.
They are great for home use or for when someone wants to borrow a pedal to try out for themself.
9V 1000mA Power Supply
This is a generic high-current 9V power supply for use with tube pedals and other effects that require more juice than the typical adapter can supply. Voltage (nominal): +9V DC Current: 1000mA Pola…c2celectronics.com
Hopefully it won't take long to get more detailed reports from the couple people who are getting demo units from me.

I hope the delivery date is met...it's the day I'm off work and the day my wife works...I wouldn't have to justify the new toy, hahaha
Ordered as well
Going to be listing my grand slampegg and/or Venus x to fund it after it gets here and I do a head to head, if anyone would like to hit me up to have first dibs on an offer

would a truespot cs6 be capable of running the 900ma needed for the sbvt pedal? would the line 6 hx stomp cable do it?
I ordered one, mostly because I've been working the for 2+ years and I'm really excited to hear Mr sushis take on it.
He is a savant with tubes and can wait to hear it

No, it'll be stock but this initial run will have a misprint on the chassis for the xlr outputIs the SBVT II a limited run pedal?
Yes, as long as the total output of the CS6 isn't exceeded with everything else that's plugged into it then it should be able to handle it.
I'll see what I can do.
Got my order in, on backorder, this morning. Glad to see the initial units sold out. I really can't get enough of these preamps. So many flavors to choose from haha.
So an accidental discovery re: the More breaking up… it won’t do it on its own, however I threw my Neptunium in front of it last night, pushed the master and lo and behold… some dirt! It was absolutely unintentional (basically an experiment in lining up additional tubes on the Np 1/4” out in an attempt to convince myself I don’t NEED a C2C Nobelium build).
Maybe bc the 12AT7 breaks up easier than the 12AU7 does, a hotter input signal lets you really push that tube? Nathan can weigh in on if this is supposed to happen… or if I inadvertently broke my More, haha.
Any circuit or component can be pushed past design tolerances into some flavor of what we perceive as distortion/clipping/saturation even ones with an intentionally high threshold like the MORE, sometimes this can be pleasing and others none at all. The only time I have heard a MORE pushed into clipping was when recording a keyboard that was cranked way too loud, upon learned the player wanted distortion I made a more appropriate choice for tube saturation iirc we used my JC Emerald that sounded glorious.
MORE was derived from an earlier SB pedal the Deep Dish compressor using the input and output stages that many found pleasing myself included.
Well, it finally arrived today, which was actually pretty quick considering it went through Germany before returning to Spain (if it actually came from the West to the East), and there weren't any additional charges, great!!!
I'll test it out a bit at home with the DAW, but we're rehearsing on Saturday and that's where it's going to be, live.
And I know it's not the ideal place to put the sticker, because sooner or later some careless person with their phone will hit me (it wouldn't be the first time) and I'll have to fix it... but I had to put something there because the little cover that goes there tends to get lost. So, Mr. Sushi, you have advertising all over Madrid and the surrounding area.hehehe

Mine just showed up as well, just in time to give it a rest run at lunch time
Already fixed the mislabeled XLR switch, too
