Home Tube DIY Asylum

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

No confusion

There are loads of different circuits in tube amps, all with different names - I think it's correct to say the one you are referring to is a type of Loftin-White. It's best to refer to circuits by name when there is already a name for it. Loftin-White dates from 1929 so it's a stretch of the imagination to call it modern.

As for the power supplies, Jeff has already given you the two terms he is using for it - "LSES" or "low stored energy supply", and a later development from that concept, called "Flywheel".

All these names are perfectly acceptable and much more precise.
