    10.5 Power Stage 10-75 10.5 Power-Stage The power-stage is the last amplification stage in the signal chain; it delivers the power required to drive the loudspeaker. In most cases, it operates with rather pathetic efficiency because normally less than half of the power produced by the power stage is actually fed to the loudspeaker – the remainder is converted into heat within the power-tube(s). In order to be able to sufficiently dissipate this power loss, the tube(s) deployed in the power-stage is (are) larger than typical preamplifier tubes. The thermal load capacity of power tubes typically amounts to 12 – 45 W with their physical volume up to 10 times that of a preamp-tube. Since power-tubes can deal with high voltages but not with high currents, they are almost never directly connected to the loudspeaker. Rather, the plate-currents of the power-tubes are fed to the output transformer that takes care of an impedance matching towards the speaker. A good overview is provided by the family of output characteristics of the power-tube (Fig. 10.5.1) showing the relation between plate-voltage and plate-current. Multiplying these two quantities yields the power-dissipation at the plate Pa, i.e. the power heating up the plate of the tube (in addition to the heating done by the tube filament). If the specified maximum dissipation at the plate is exceeded for long periods of time, the tube begins to glow and may be destroyed. The so-called power-hyperbola is given in Fig.

PREFACE TO THIRD EDITION Several years have passed since this book was first published on Simon Buxton’s VK2BV website. The writer now realises he is lucky to have started in this hobby many years ago, long before the prices of old radios started to rise appreciably. In 2012, the supply of collectable and restorable old radios newly emerging from storerooms and garages all over the UK is finally drying up. Nevertheless there still seem to be many young people keen to learn the skill of working on this equipment. That is the good news for our hobby. Sadly, those who performed the original design and operational work are now elderly, and many are no longer able to teach the knowledge.
