Simple 84

Posted by Gordon Rankin (M) on June 18, 2004 at 10:44:59

Ok Gang,

Here is a real simple EL84 amplifier capable of about 5W's with a 2v input signal. Inverted regulated screens using an OB3. Single power, 2 power chokes, input EXO173 as a voltage multiplier by 2. R3 yet to be determined to give it like 1-3dB of feedback.

If you have a cap coupled preamp make sure the cap is at least 4uF or above, tranny a better method.

You could make this an integrated by subbing in a Transformer Vol control with +6dB of gain.

Power caps many come to mind, Black Gate, JJ both 100uFx2.

Pretty easy to make, not too complicated.

Thanks, well back to my USB Tube Guitar Preamplifier...ahhhhhhhh
