Projects with EE50 and EE51
EE51 Project by Alex T. from Germany.
What a beautiful housing :)
Translated from German text:
Hello Jac, Thank you so much for the shipment last week. I already installed the circuit board in one of my Modushop Italy enclosures over the weekend. I also like to use these enclosures for other transformers (microphone capsules). The total weight with the 10mm front panel is 600g. That's just right for vibration-free operation.
With "very soft" damping, the Lundahl LL9226XL performs very well with the Denon DL-103, Ortofon SPU Classic GM/E, and SPU Classic N. The sound is almost as good as the LL1941, which I also own. The Lundahl LL9226XL was intended for my Denon cartridges. I haven't tried the DL-103R yet. The break-in period so far is 20 hours.
Thank you again. Attached are pictures of my setup, which you're welcome to share.
Best regards from Hannover, Alex
Thank you Alex for the nice pictures!
EE50 Project by Hrvoj T. from Croatia.
This shows other connectors are also possible.
This litte box contains treasure transformers, the pure silver wound transformers LL1931Ag, with amorphous cobalt core. The large box is the EMT128 pre amplifier (Pictured from the inside), using also Lundahl transformers.
The front-end system consists of:
- Record player: Technics SP-10 Mk II in original Technics SH-10B Obsidian base
- Tonearm: Thales Statement Tangential pivoted tonearm
- MC Cartridge: EMT JSD Pure Black (copper coils - 12 Ohms DC resistance)
- Phono MM Preamplifier: Harman/Kardon Citation I (vintage tube unit upgraded with Jim McShame premium parts and NOS ECC83 RCA Italy (2) and ECC83 Telefunken (2) tubes).
- Alternative MC pre amplifier: EMT 128 with the self made Lundahl MC box.
Thank you Hrvoj for this excellent information!
EE50 Project by Bratislav S. from Serbia, Belgrade.
This exceptional design was actually build with EE51, but with EE50 it would look the same, just 1cm larger size. Our customer send us these nice, inspiring pictures of his EE51 build. He has adapted the looks of the MC Box to his amplifier

Thank you Bratislav for this nice design!
EE51 Project by Francois B. from France.
This project shows a very nice miniature box, made with the EE51 unit at the inside. The case was custom engraved.
In case you are interested, Francois gave is the source for the case: Click here.
Thank you very much Francois!
EE51 project by Gyula S. from Hungary
The used cartridge is here Denon DL 103R. If you ask me, this is probably the most used cartridge. It needs normally 1:20 step up, and the damping set to "very soft" for most tone arms. It is an ideal candidate for the LL9226 Cobalt Core transformer. The box gas engraved lettering, and a specially treated surface..
Thank you very much Gyula!
