HI all,
This is my first post here, but have read the forum on and off for a few years. I have built many kits and circuits on pcb, recapped a few guitar amps, but have not built an amp from scratch.
I am starting with Tome McNally's 13emt SET amp. I like the simple one tube per channel design and it looks simple enough.
I am looking for a standard plate transformer for power - Tom's design use a 240/12 transformer backward to get the B+. I amlooking for the least expansive option - would the hammond 270ex have enough current to drive the tubes?
open to any suggestions or other ideas
thanks
Jeff Foster
