WARNING: Tube/Valve amplifiers use potentially LETHAL HIGH VOLTAGES.
Building, troubleshooting and testing of these amplifiers should only be
performed by someone who is thoroughly familiar with
the safety precautions around high voltages.
I want try to build a clean two channel's rack preamp based on AMT SS-11, but using ecc82 as a output stage buffer, instead a jfet like the original. Anybody can help me if I do something wrong? or avoid something?
12AU7 cathode follower biased to zero on the grid will distort significantly at a few volts signal. We'd normally bias a CF part-way up the supply voltage.
