I think the key here was "affordable"...I can understand the thrill received from DYI projects, but the websites you provided (aside from the forum sites) have nothing to offer in terms of affordability judging by the prices. If you REALLY want to build a tube amp, start studying. There are schemes all over the web for good hi-watt tube amp configs. Fab the chassis yourself, buy the parts, get out the soldering iron and in the end: experience true happines when you turn it on... Tube amps are not expensive to build, but the B.S. a lot of these kit makers are selling can be...
Need Help Finding Affordable Tube Amp Kits.
I'm thinking about building a tube amp from a kit.
I would like 50 wpc in a stereo or 2 mono blocks design.
Since I'm new to the "build your own" club I would like to hear from the members who took on the task of building there own tube amp. I'm open to suggestions to brand, design or anything else that might help.
Looking for a very good quality amp with excellent, detailed assembly instructions.
I can solder, read schamatics and have the patience of a saint at times.
I've been toying with rebulding a Dynaco 70 also.
Any advice/comments would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks, Rick.
