Listening to the horns, it seems that they indeed die somewhere below 120Hz. I was surprised, and a little disappointed that it seemed so steep. Good to hear that it's to be expected!!Yes, I'm using a 30-something-Hz 1st order high pass on them ...

Simply put, this concept has more to do with tangible results than most other things we talk about. At least, potentially. In the same way that a person might go to the ophthalmologist and get a pair of prescription eyeglasses to see clea...

Hello Romy
This is my first post. Did you take courses in electronics and mechanical engineering or have you learned yourself outside of a structured environment? I am very interested to become proficient in working on/modifying my own electronics. ...

I have some Cortot and some Michelangeli - somewhere - but I am not sure if it includes Debussy, because I have not been able to stay in the room with most of the "Images"-type of Debussy rendered by most artists, most of the time, so I ha...

I chose the 170V point as midway between the 250V supply I had for the CCS plate load. The choice was for maximal signal swing in both directions. [quote]in a properly designed amplifier a transformer should clip before the active stages[...

Thanks Romy for showing us this work and the thoughts of its creator(s).I'll say it again; the world needs more people like these guys: Human creativity remains the only saving grace of an otherwise pathetic species. It would be most excellent if Kl...

I got my second version of new power amp up and running, this time using the 6E5P Romy recommended. Output tubes are 2A3. Amazingly, this amp runs at 0.12% distortion at 1W. No feedback anywhere. It is simple two stage amp run...

The "gold wire" version tetrode runs fine, now that I have it connected properly. I switched to my better scope, so photos have visible grids. Everything is now calibrated, too. Vertical is 12.5mA per div. Wow, that tube sure ...

Romy, I tried out a 6e5p as a driver tube in a PP 2a3 amp (was using a 7788 for driver). Well, knock my socks off! The amp went from 6 watts to 8 watts! Distortion dropped a tad, but mostly it was more signal swing. I could dr...
