Looking for a new Amp or Preamp? If you're after tubes, post over here.

Cool!

An Actual Williamson amp. Not the design but the real thing.

Historically valuable as the Williamson design had vastly reduced distortion over the prior art, by using differential amplifiers (back in those days known as a 'long-tailed pair') as the driver. This reduced distortion as push-pull normally has some distortion cancellation in the load, now you were getting distortion cancellation driving the power tubes as well.

A venerable and very copied design!
