The point of an 845, 211, 805 amp?

Do you have the iron?

my tentative plan may not be the designers-dream but I'm not feeling like I have to conform to perfection...

gain tube (6SL7 maybe) -> 2A3 -> Hammond 126 IT -> 845 -> Hammond 1629SEA

I already have these two transformers. The 1629SEA reflects an 8 Ohm load to 6k5 primary impedance.

I will need a suitable power transformer.

We had one of those!

You guys and your thirsty V8s, my car is a 73 Super Beetle with a dual carb 1776cc engine, and a bit of suspension work. Affordable to drive, and faster than it looks, good fit for my audio philosophy of low to moderate output push pull amplifiers I suppose 🙂

I'll buy a big heavy V8 once I build an amplifier using some big transmitting tubes one day 🙂

Sorry for the OT post but we had one of those beetles in forest green bought new in '73. They were a great little car for the time. Hope yours is still getting you around. 🙂
