Default New amp

Thanks Bob,

The 816s are a little hard to find at decent prices, but I have a few on
hand. They'll probably last a long time the way I'm running them.

I haven't measured the nfb. The amp is a little hard to test because I
can't run it upside down due to the 816s. I had to solder in a buch of
wires to various nodes I wanted to test and run them to a barrier strip
screwed to my bench. It worked OK, but was a little tedious.

BR,

Raymond

Hi Raymond

Nice looking amp. The available tube supply won't dry up anytime soon
for it.

Did you measure the amount of nfb you found preferable in triode mode?

Thanks,
Bob H.

Hi RATs,

Here's a link to a project I've had on the bench for a while and got
finished today. I learned quite a bit on this one.

It sounds as good as it looks.

Comments, questions?

Regards,

Raymond
