Morgan Jones - Valve books
I bought the Morgan Jones "Valve Amplifiers 3rd edition - 2003" but also saw his "Building Valve Amplifiers - 2004"
Are there alot of differant material in the 2004 book, is it worth getting it as well? What other books are recoomended for Amplifier - solidstate/valve information?

The 3rd edition of Valve Amplifiers is the latest. Building Valve Amplifiers covers a different set of topics, centered on the practical aspects of metalworking, soldering, layout, grounding, safety, and measurement.
It convinced me that I should never go near a metal shop.

The building valve amp book is worth it just for his explanation of star ground. There is also a lot of other information in the book as well. I highly recommend it.
There are few other sets of technical books in the world that are as easy to work with as the Morgan Jones books |

There are some nice photos and explanation of the grounding scheme for the Crystal Palace amp. It's a good object lesson, what with high current grounds, signal grounds, safety earth, and stages running between positive and negative rails.
