Hey Sutts, so you went out and did it. Good for you. Get hold of Jcbtubes. He mods all my tube amps and can give you an idea of what certain Caps, resistors, Etc will sound like. Congratulations! Which speakers did you go for? SE or TE. BTW, Jc is an EE among other things.
Tube amp newbie- where can I learn??
Hey fellow audiophiles- I am just beginning to get into tube amps (having just acquired 4 of them!), and am looking for a book or online resource that will help explain the basics of how a tube amp works (i.e. what a capacitor does; how a transformer works; etc., etc.).
Keep in mind, I have absolutely NO background in electronics, and don't neccesarily want to be able to rebuild anything, I just want to understand the basic principles of tube amp design, and maybe be able to actually look inside my amps and understand what all the parts are, and what they do. Any ideas? Thanks all, and good listening!
