Hello, i'm new

PrograMedia · 15th January 2006, 03:21 PM

Hello, I'm new here..my name is René.

As a young kid (6) I always played with electronics, collecting radio's and tv's from garbage and make my parents mad with this...

I'm 37 now, and still playing with (and selling some of) the components i have collected in my life.

Tube audio is my favourite. I build a "Menno van der Veen" design amplifier with EL84 tubes for output driven by ECC81.
This amplifier is "modernized" with remote control (Z80 based IR-receiver and VFD display), 8 inputs, phono pre-amp.

Also another project is a tube DAC with AD1865 and ECC88 tube, like audionote.

I'm starting next week with a SE-design based on KT44 tubes from this website: http://www2u.biglobe.ne.jp/~tossie/

anyone that ever used KT44 before?

Hello Rene and welcome to the forums. This is a great place to discuss your fancy for tubes. There are quite a number of very smart tubeheads here.
