| Schematics These schematics are from a library I have been compiling for years. Look for the ones marked 'TESTED'; they are plans I have personally built and tested. Only unique design and good performers are posted here. Enjoy! |

Amplifiers | Single-Ended |
|||
| Single-Ended Amplifiers | |||
| XFMR coupled WE437a to 300B - Looks like a good performer - 5U4 rectifier - Local feedback at output tube | ![]() |
||
| 30W SE amp using the famous 6C33-B Russian tube - EL34 driver and paralleled 12AX7 input - Parafeed coupling to output transformer - Regulated negative supply | ![]() |
||
| TESTED This schematic was tested with the Svetlana EF86 and 6550 - Very good performer with good tones - The output xfmr used is from SOWTER | ![]() |
||
| Good design using direct coupling between the driver and output tubes - The use of a negative supply on the cathodes of the input (12AX7) and driver (6CG7) tubes lends itself to good dynamic stability | ![]() |
||
| TESTED This circuit was tested with a SOWTER output xfmr - Excellent performance - ECC83 input and 4 EL84 output - I love the sound of the Amperex Bugle Boy EL84s that were used - Lots of single-ended power | ![]() |
||
| TESTED This circuit performed very well - EF86 input EL84 output - Very low distortion levels with good tubes | ![]() |
||
| TESTED ECC82 input EL84 output integrated amp - Gain was a little high - Great sound | ![]() |
||
| Paralleled 12AX7 input, EL34 output - Good design | |||
| Single ECL82/6BM8 power amp - Tested with the Svetlana 6BM8 and SOWTER output - Very impressive sound production with efficient speakers - I did not care much for the un-isolated power supply, I used a separate regulated one | ![]() |
||
| Integrated ECL82 power amp - Easy to build - Great starter amp for the novice | ![]() |
||
| XFMR coupled to cathode amp - 6SN7/KT90 tube compliment - Good design - We all are familiar with the good linearity of the 6SN7 | ![]() |
||
| XFMR coupled 811a amp - 6F6 driver, 12AU7A SRPP input stage - Looks like a good performer | ![]() |
||
| 6V6 hybrid amp, LF356ah mosfet op-amp input - Well designed - Should render an interesting performance | ![]() |
||
| 6SU7/6GB8 direct coupled design - Should give excellent LF response | ![]() |
||
| 12AT7/6550 SE design - Quite simple to build | ![]() |
||
| Parallel SRPP design using the ECC81 dual triode - 5U4 rectifier - Should yield good S/N ratio | ![]() |
||
| 6BM8/300B power amplifier - Good design - Should be a good performer | ![]() |
||
| SRPP 12AT7 input, EL34 driver, 300B output - The EL34 will take the output tube to it limit, probably generating grid current - Should be a good performer | ![]() |
||
| XFMR coupled 300B amp - Zero feedback, tube rectification - Paralleled 12AT7 input should give a low noise figure | ![]() |
