I haven't noticed another thread here mentioning it, but Merlin Blencowe (AKA "The Valve Wizard", or Merlinb) has released a brand new book on hi-fi valve preamp design. This is a follow-on to his highly regarded book an guitar and bass preamps, and is really something that should be in every tube sniffer's library, even if you already own Jones, etc.
Books published by Lulu take a week or two to show up on Amazon. You can order it direct from Lulu:

unfortunately, the exchange rate these days makes this a bit too rich. I'll wait to hear what you fella's think of it.
I just placed in my order.
I was inspired by shoog to build FV-5A. I use it or my modified (6922 based) Rozenblit grounded grid preamp. They both sound very good driving my biamped all tube two way Altec speakers (416,802-8G,811 horn). It does not get any better than this, I keep telling myself!

Thanks for the code, it worked even for me as I registred at lulu.com to buy thi book.
I actually bought both books he wrote, this will be interesting.
Hi Jan,
Yes, -25% code is still good. (LULURC ) 🙂 Too bad the Canadian exchange stinks right now. 🙁
Registration was easy, no problems. Then being able to pay with PayPal made things even easier!
