Hi all.😀
I am Vietnamese,My English is not so good but I like to make a amplifier EL34,this is the schematic for me,I am use tube 6J1/6AK5 - 6H8C/6NS7-EL34.

Mullard 5-20. One of the classics. Your phase splitter will be unbalanced, though. A CCS for the tail will fix that, otherwise you need to unbalance the plate resistors a bit (if memory serves, 28k and 33k, but I'd double-check that).

Thank mod.

That a good idea.

I not perfect my design, a VR adjust the balance current anode 6SN7,if dont so I must macthpair 6SN7

You are using a pentode gain stage and a triode phase splitter, which is a lot of gain.

But you also are using pure pentod eoutput stage, and none of it with any loop negative feedback..

1/ I suspect you will have HUGE gain, far tooo much for any normal system

2/ You will have VERY high output impedance, which will not be good for 90% of speakers.

Thank Allen.

I have using feedback by gain too much.

Can you see it ? R21 = 1.8K, R22 = 100 ohm.

Check the screen grid resistors for the EL34 p-p. I read 1R; should read 400-1K ?

My charts give conflicting results; some mention common 800R-1K resistor and fixed bias supply. Other members could add.
