Shall I build a Tubelab SE 300b or Triode Dick´s Little Ceasar?

Hello forum,

after nearly 20 years of building clones on pcbs and point to point, I want solder a circuit containing a 300b end tube.
It´ll run into Tang Band W8-1772 full range speakers and should be a supplement to my Aleph J clone.

After doing intense research I´ve narrowed the schematics down to the Tubelab SE and Triode Dick´s Little Ceasar, cause they are well documented, easy to build and seem to have a lot of followers.

Unfortunately there is only very limited information about the sonic qualities of both amps.

What do you think? Which one will be better? How do they compare to other circuits like the Audio Note Kit One or the F.I. Primer? Would you suggest something else?

Many thanks and all the best

Rene

Thanks Korneluk,

thanks for the link.

honestly not. I built a 6C33C SE several years ago and liked the holographic sound. What I didn`t was its heat.

Therefore the idea with the 300b. It shall be used for Jazz, acoustic and complex music. The rest will be played with my Aleph J clone.
