There's a 50cc class of racing motorbikes. Back in the 50s and 60s it became all about how many cylinders you could get to displace only 50cc. Things got real small and because things really didn't weigh all that much revs were over 20,000! So they put a stop to it and 50cc is now limited to one cylinder. Yeah but Ralph you are Da Man with stuff like this so I have to ask, what about going the other way? Why not use one great big high power tube? The reason I ask is some guys I respect are going that way with SET and real happy with it. Of course everything else still matters too but might there some inherent advantage to using fewer tubes? |
@jpwarren58 Not a troll thread at all. Seems like a complicated way to reproduce music.please enlighten us, what would be a simpler way? So some of tubes are the same as the power transformers? https://splice.com/blog/vacuum-tubes-in-music/ https://www.electronics-tutorials.ws/transformer/audio-transformer.html https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Valve_audio_amplifier https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Aj3LNHqUt3A https://www.rs-online.com/designspark/building-a-valve-amplifier-part-1-design-components-and-layout as you posted the original query, hope you have the patience to absorb the info above for some basic knowledge on the subject |
