... A buffer stage is placed between the oscillator and the PA stage, to prevent changes in PA tuning from excessively loading the oscillator, and causing the...
Hi everyone!!! can somebody please tell me which is the main factor who determines the class of a tube amplifier (A,B,C,AB1,AB2), and what are the main...
Well I'm not an expert by any means but it is mainly how the grid is biased and the output shape of the waveform. I.E. whether or not it is clipped or not....

Dear members, Does anyone know what type of resistor to use in this situation? My amplifier was designed for 110 volts. When I use it with the 120 volts we...
You could always buy a "Variac". It's a continuously variable transformer with a range of 0 - 140vac. For your purpose I'd get one rated at least 4-5amps...
FWIW, I strongly endorse that approach. Since your problem is high line voltage, it's better to deal with it at the source, external to the amp, rather than...
Marc: Forget about brand name and look for a precision 1% metal film resistor usually (as Harvey indicates) 1 to 3 watts. Larger will not hurt but avoid...

Hi, on your tubes, consider that tube-type TVs haven't been manufactured in so long, there isn't a lot of demand for HV rectifiers (1B3, 3A3, etc) or HV...
