Just posted the design for another recent project, a stereo SE amp using the R120 triode.

It uses Dissident Audio DA-143 output transformers. It sounds unlike any of the other SE amps I've built - I don't know why.

Full info is here: R120 SE Amp

Just read your the article on your site. Congratulations, things might never be the same.. (In the best way possible) I had my epiphany about 17yrs ago, these days I have graduated to relatively big transformer coupled SE amps, but still wonder at it all.

My first SE amp design turned my world upside down more or less. It was not intended to succeed, but it did to the extent that I still own it, although it is out on long term loan these days.. (I don't have anything else from that time frame at all, anything...)
