Home Tube DIY Asylum

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

RE: Question

whats the bet the anon troll has a system full of high dcr sloppy amps and no money to upgrade them. So he would rather live in de nile

any way latterly I have been contemplating that the ax7 and el84 are the finest audio tubes ever built and given you where a great amp builder you shouldn't really need anything more.One day when I am bored of dht's I am going to build another el84 SE amp with the best power supply I can afford. It will have feedback and maybe even global feedback around the trans and it may even have 2 coupling caps and 2 ax7 driver stages. I once found a vintage jap rapar el84 amp for a friend. It had feedback 2 ax7 gain stages with tone controls. And we hooked that amp up and wow. 12ax7 el84 the ultimate desert island tubes and budget tubes too.

Those guys that made those tubes made them for audio with feedback and when used right they sure do sing.
