Home Tube DIY Asylum

Do It Yourself (DIY) paradise for tube and SET project builders.

There is one category you have to look at on those data sheets

Driving power aka Grid Driving Power. You will need a hefty 25 to 50 watt amplifier to drive the 100TH. You could use a MOSFET source follower to drive the grid of the 100TH, but if you are going that rout to use the 100TH as a driver, just use a voltage tube into the MOSFET source follower to drive the 814. It will sound better.

Using an amplifier to drive a massive power tube only to drive a massive power tube is fun, but does not make a lot of practical sense. Look up "power drive" or Tubelab's sites. MOSFET Source Follower Grid drive.
