transformer coupled plate follower - Page 2

Hello Pointy, if you mean as the output transformer then you will find it to be virtually useless in that role.

Also, the circuit as illustrated was likely documented to show that which is theoretically possible. However, as has been stated above, it is not a very useful circuit in real terms.

If you configure your test box to be able to tackle common cathode, cathode follower, SRPP, long-tail pair, and cascode then you will have many interesting nights of experimentation ahead of you.

... and just forget about that particular Broskie circuit!

it was something more to wire up to a selector switch............

as i say it should be safe to try a few things......and the pre-amp build with the se power amp have only cost me about £30 to £40s so far(all i have left to do is fit the RCAs and 2 more pots).

What i'm doing is hav'ing a look at all the types of circuit that i may like to use (switchable)
in a stereo pre-amp one day(not X over because that can be done with a graphic equalizer), so i thought i would try them all out on the cheap to start with.

PS thanks gordy....................................that looks about
