Korneff 45 SE

I would say that the Jeff Korneff 45 SE is a SET standard of sorts. Built like a tank, reliable and sweet sounding. Because it is only 2 watts, it requires appropriately high efficiency speakers, so some might shy away from it. Do a search and see all the high praise from many folks. I am sorry I every sold mine. It was the second SET amp I owned and have owned many since. If I could give advice to my younger self, it would be "keep the Korneff amp and preamp forever". I could have save thousands of dollars if I heeded that advice. I recall the original design was from a magazine article (do a search) and that Jeff modified it somewhat. I do not know if Jeff is still making amps. There are lots of Korneff 45 Clones out there, some very well made, so the schematics must be out there also. The Korneff 76 preamp is absolutely superb and complements the 45 amp like a hand in a glove.
