Home Tube DIY Asylum

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

getting the bottom octave back (if you want it)

Kurt,

Use either Grid or full Grid leak bias on the second valve. The 750 Ohm resistor alone is reflected up to the anode as 750 * Mu or theoretically 60k.... Bridge out (for fun) the cathode resistor on the output and use a 20M Gridleak resistor, plus a 2M7 before the coupling Cap (or just re-adjust the RIAA).

Other than that and the 417A it looks very interresting.... I almost made something similar myseld, but decided to save my shots for a fully LR/LRC equalised WE 396 & we417A phonostage, so I'm just building a little "drilled up" version of the EAR 834P.

BTW, if you drop all that cash on Teflon Cap's, do try a pair of S&B 103's for around $ 200 the pair. In my setup you have to wipe the EAR MC-3's off the wall in small chunks after a "shootout", but that just me and WTFDIK....
