help ?
where i can find?
thank you

Plenty of reading materials at Andrea Ciuffoli's web page, a well recognized and respected designer:

No quest for PP amps would be complete without looking at the PP-1C Power Amp
near the bottom of this page http://www.vacuumstate.com/schematics.htm .
This is the amp of Allen Wright's that Bernhard mentioned somewhere in another thread.
As far schematics go there are a LOT of them out on the www. I compiled a link list of solid state designs for my web-site, but for every amp on that list i bet there are at least 20, probably more, tube amps.

Go to <http://www.hwsams.com> and order a catalog. They sell service portfolios for most brands sold in the states. For instance you could order a copy of the Marantz 8B and get a schematic, photos, parts list and voltage and resistance readings. The library here in Dallas has most of the Sams Photofacts in the stacks and I can get them pulled and photo copy them. Lots of designs were really good only done on a large scale using cheap parts. There are lots of RCA, Magnavox etc SE designs worth making. Some of those old consoles had nice stuff in them but made with cheap caps and transformers. Good schematics though. Luck!
PP designs
The two best PP designs I have seen are,
The <a href="http://www.vacuumstate.com/images/PP-1C_a.gif">PP-1C</a> by Allen Wright (<a href="http://www.vacuumstate.com/images/PP-1C_b.gif">PSU here</a>),
and,
the <a href="http://www.aloha-audio.com/triode1.html">Amity</a> by Lynn Olsen. However this is NOT a beginner's project. There is a lot of detail in a seemingly simple design.
Dunno much about SETs. I've yet to find one I like, but YMMV.
Cheers

try this
hello people,
1. there is many theory for right design
www.tubecad.com
2. there is a DIY directheat tubes, find the good tips
www.vt52.com
3. and you should see this "sakuma amplifier"
with the odd of his design then result in a best amp in his
mind, find it by search engine,
tell me your opinion about those three above
i'm waiting

p31r:
A friend of mine (Bob Danielak) made an amp using the "Sakuma principle" of transformer coupling and using the same tube for driver and final output.
He called it the "Sakuma Darling" and it used a step-up transformer at the input (4:1) into a 1626, interstage transformer coupled to a 1626.
We listened to several different 1626 amps together and in some ways this was my favorite, this approach clearly has a lot of merit.
