Home Tube DIY Asylum

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

But won't he need four SE amps?

That's where so much of confusion comes in..He will need two separate 6sn7s for each channel and he is splitting the phase via transformer in the beginning with NO voltage amplification before or after the PS trafo.
I think the best way for him to do this is to CCS plate load a 6SN7 for each tube. He already split the phase with the trafo and now just use the first half of each 6SN7 as a voltage amp and the second half as a DC coupled follower to drive each of the output tubes..He will have a voltage gain of 20 but if he only wants to drive the KT88s to 12 watts,he will probably have enough gain but can't be 100% sure.
