This amp’s name may be long for such a simple thing, but it’s correct and the ideal way to describe one of the best sounding amps I have made to date.
Luckily, and by some stretch of fate, these 6C6 tubes are still out there and someone in another land is making six pin tube sockets and caps for the tubes. Fringe industry at best, and a treat for our ears, however unlikely. This circuit is damn near nirvana, but only possible because of the infrastructure, hardware and simplicity.
1940, meet today.
This circuit is derived from an example given in the 1940 Radiotron Third Edition Designers Guide.
Many thanks to Joseph Esmilla for unearthing and displaying this circuit on his fine web site. Imagine languishing for seventy years before being given a second thought.
