6SN7-6L6-Tube-Amp-2.jpg6SN7-6L6 DIY Tube Amplifier4185 viewsThis amplifier uses a Williamson front end and phase splitter, with an ultralinear output stage. The valve lineup for each channel is a 6SN7 as first amplifier and phase splitter, followed by another 6SN7 driving a pair of 6L6s. Bias is set by active semiconductor current sinks. The 400V HT is generated by a double anode diode (5R4) driving a choke input filter. The audio output transformers are Hammond Manufacturing 1620s. Conservative rating of 20W per channel.
top1.jpgPush-Pull 6T9 Stereo Tube Amplifier2470 viewsThis is a project I started some time ago which was inspired by the Spare Time Gizmo's 6T9 Tube Amplifier Kit. I decided to make it push-pull using circuit ideas from my Eico HF-81 and my RCA Receiving tube manual. The combination wood and brass chassis came about when I found a small sheet of brass shoved under a cabinet and long forgotten about at work. It took a bit of work to clean it up and polish it to that shine! The wood is poplar purchased at Lowes, stained with Minwax Red Mahogany stain and finished with Amber Shellac.
DIY-6s45p-300B-GU-48-Tube-Amplifier.jpgDIY 6s45p / 300B / GU-48 Tube Amplifier - 125 Watts2207 viewsMy 125W tube amplifier. The input tube is 6s45p which drives a 300B and is followed by a GU-48 (replacement for the 833 tube). The 6s45p input tube is DC coupled to a 300B. There are no resistors or capacitors in the signal path. The 300B is coupled to a GU-48 tube through a step-down interstage transformer. Driver and output tubes are fixed biased for more natural and dynamic result. Output tube is working at 1000V-250mA. Amplifier gives me 125W single ended sound in class A2 mode. It has very powerful deep bass, mids are very loud and lovely. Highs are very clear. I am feeling like in concert hall. The case is made from 20mm thick African Wenge wood. Chassis is 2 mm thick electrostatic painted steel. The total weight is 50 kg.
6T9-Tube-Amp-Front.jpg6T9 Hi-Fi Tube Amplifier Project1213 viewsDIY build of a single-ended 6T9 Tube Amplifier using the PCBs from Spare Time Gizmo. The power and audio output transformers are from Edcor. Mark's 6T9 ultra-liner tube amp modifications were used.

OddWatt-225-6SL7-KT77-PP-Tube-Amp.jpgOddWatt 225 (driver 6SL7, output KT77 push-pull)43 viewsThis is my version of the OddWatt 225 (push-pull) tube amplifier project that I built following the instruction on this website. The output power is 15W in pure class-A operation. The amplifier can be used with KT77 and 6L6GC output tubes.
I'm using the push-pull KT77 tube amplifier with my DIY Turntable (record player) which is a featured project on the website.

Scott-299-Amplifier.jpgScott 299 Amplifier Rebuild38 viewsThis is a picture of my 299 Scott Amplifier. I made the whole enclosure case using 1/2" (13 mm) aluminum. The knobs are made of one and 1-3/8" roll aluminum. The face plate is made from a piece of stainless steel with silk screened lettering. The Scott 299 amplifier was completely re- built from the ground up and it sounds great.
Thank you,
