Hi
I combined a little and got this pre-amplifier on schematic.
On schematic resistors 2k2 and 2k7 should be replaced with a 10k, cathode resistors of 120ohm to replace with resistors of 470ohm.
Capacitor of 680uF to expel.
And that's guys a good schematic anode for the preamplifier!
Cheers!


Otherwise the schematic without power supply worked Harkonnen with some Crotian DiyAudio.hr!
P.S.
Small recommendation: stick to topics.

Why is the power supply so complex? I would think that you could get rid of more than half of the parts shown and it would not make a difference in the overall performance.

Hi
If we want to create a quality preamp (High-End) should be for noise to make a good quality power supply, and that means the sum of power supply interference and to reduce to a minimum!
Semiconductor devices today are very inexpensive and very long lasting!
enjoy!

the preamp that is posted a while back is very quiet, no hum no hiss and sounds mucho fabololso...😉😀

Long lasting....? That would explain the 200V cap with 204 volts across it...? Or the 3.3V zener that gets killed by the switch on surge...? Never mind the unnecessary resistor R3, or the extra resistors used to bias the heater rail - two resistors are enough - there's no benefit in having four.

Too much BS for me. I'm out of here.

Hi 12E1!

I did not understand you?!, ... be a little specific, ...
Here's a new schematics for pre-amplifier.

It's not "his" schematic- he lifted it from someone else without permission.

I would suggest that the OP carefully define what he wants the preamp to do, in technical terms- gain, input and output impedances, the usual. Until then, I would suggest others not flail around trying to help someone try to choose or "improve" a design until he figures out what he actually wants.

Hi Sy!
I want good tube/valve preamplifier or Line-Stage wath gain<8x and which will prevail steam harmonics.
The largest second harmonic to be <0.5% at the maximum output voltage!
The output impedance to be preamp Zout<1k!😎
E-look something like the graph.😱
thank you and cheers!

Come on guys let's move on,... your offer solutions schematics etc, for high-quality tube/valve pre-amplifiers.
thanks!
This is a DIY site. Why don't you find a good design and show it to us (via linking rather than stealing), asking for our comments. Don't keep putting up poor designs and telling us they are wonderful, or demanding that we provide you with designs. This game is getting boring.
