Single Ended Triodes (SETs), the ultimate tube lovers dream.

Priorities....

Wonderful build quality, and some deep thought behind construction.

I have different priorities.

1. Only use DHTs
2. Use higher gain DHTs (4P1L PSE) so you only have 2 stages.
3. Use DHTs in filament bias so there are no cathode bypass caps.
4. Avoid all coupling caps - use transformers.
5. Only polypropylene caps in the PSU.

Basically just DHTs and transformers for the ultimate in clarity. I avoid capacitors like the plague except where they are unavoidable, and I haven't used an indirectly heated tube for years.
