The aim of a mixed class amplifier is to provide the high quality sound of Class-A Class-B Class-A operation with the greater efficiency and power output of Class-B operation.

  • EAT KT88 Vacuum Tube Review
    From the Editor nthusiasts of all ages can appreciate the artistry of the band The Grateful Dead, and many find it tempting to adopt frag- ments of the Dead's song lyrics as mottos. My personal favorite is this one: "Every once in while you get shown the light / Ein the strangest of places if you look at it right." How true, especially in the worlds of audio and home theater. In this issue, AVguide Monthly reviewers have gone searching for insights in what may at first seem strange places-posing intriguing "what if?" questions like these: • What if you used an Apple iPod backed by a small headphone amp and a killer pair of headphones as your high-end audio system?" • What if you bought "full-range speakers" in two parts-choosing nearly full-range speakers to handle everything from the mid-bass on up, and a highly specialized subwoofer to handle the lowest frequencies? • What if you discovered one of the best places to enjoy HD home theater was your desktop? • What if you could get "big" home-theater sound from downright tiny speakers? • What if you could transform the sound of your vacuum-tube amplifier, just by installing a better set of tubes? • What if you could get a big improvement in system sound quality through a not-so-big investment in better speaker cables? The point is to keep an open mind when experimenting with non-traditional components and system configurations. Experimentation, after all, is the road that leads to those unexpected moments where you "get shown the light" and discover new products and approaches that really work, and can really make a difference in how your system performs.

  • Univalve.Pdf
    ® UniValve™ Amplifier Introducing the THD UniValve Amplifier! The new THD UniValve is a Single-Ended Class A amplifier head with a single output tube that can be switched at will among many octal- based power tubes for different tones without re-biasing the amp. Useable tubes include 6L6, EL34, 6550, KT90, KT88, KT77 and KT66. With the amp in “LoV” setting you can use 6V6 for a total output of 5 watts. A special UniValve Yellow Jacket™ Converter is available allowing the UniValve to use the popular EL84 power tube at a total of 4 watts output power, also in “LoV” setting. Likewise, the two preamp tubes can be any combination of 12AX7, 12AT7, 12AU7, 12AY7 or 12AZ7. The UniValve delivers tones from smooth and clear to very aggressive overdrive. It is easily capable of driving a 4 x 12 cabinet, yet is quite small and light. It has a built-in Hot Plate™ Power Attenuator that allows for full output distortion at almost any volume. And it doesn’t cost as much as you might think. set of tubes and the other set, each for one half of the wave. The set not in use is turned off by a positive swing of the grid voltage. Single-ended output stages always operate in Class A. Most push-pull amplifiers, including the venerated Vox AC-30, operate in Class AB when What is Class A? overdriven, even if they are in Class A while clean. Class A operation has its own unique tonal characteristics that set it apart from other tube amp classes.

  • The Ultra-Linear Power Amplifier
    The Ultra-Linear Power Amplifier An adventure between triode and pentode Rudolf Moers 1 Introduction In 95, David Hafler and Herbert Keroes introduced a pentode power amplifier, in which a tap of the primary transformer winding was connected to the screen grid of the power pentode [2]. They called this the Ultra-Linear power amplifier. This power amplifier shows the advantages of a triode, low anode AC internal resistance and low distortion, as well as the advantages of a pentode, large deliv - ered anode AC power and good efficiency. The narrative given by David Hafler and Herbert Keroes is good and substantiated in practice; this is very important. What I personally missed in their narration is a theoretical explanation of the operation of the ultra- linear circuit. I have several electronics books including the well known seven parts of the electron tube book range, written by scientists of the Philips Gloeilampenfabrieken Company at Eindhoven in the Netherlands. I also have all the electronics books of the company school written by A.J. Sietsma. In none of these books did I find a theoretical explanation of the operation of the ultra- linear circuit. I do not suggest that such an explanation does not exist ; I just have not been able to find it. Therefore I went on an adventure between triode and pentode myself. In this adventure, the - ory will be checked against practice. Figure 1. Homework exercise from the great book from 1959 by A.J. Sietsma [3]. posted with permission from Linear Audio www.linearaudio.net Rudolf Moers When doing research for my book [], I was pleasantly surprised to find the homework exercise of fig - ure 1 .

  • TAD-Products
    Tube Amp Doctor is a German company specialized in electron tubes and related components for musical instruments and audio amplification. TAD is closely cooperating with all of the few existing tube factories. Our techs, who are all active musicians, have been developing processes to test and secure the quality, consistency and reliability of our TAD tubes. TAD STR tubes (Special Tube Requirement) are produced to exclusive TAD designs and strict specifications. TAD tubes get evaluated, tested, approved, selected and finally matched, labeled and boxed. All tube quality control and processing is done at the TAD plant in Germany. Every single tube has passed our listening test to ensure the finest selection of best premium quality tubes available on the market to support your music. Tube Laboratoriesquality control and test approach BURN IN PROCESS Tubes must be properly burned-in to provide the stable and reliable data that is required for quality tube matching. This is a time- and energy-consuming and cost-intensive pro- cess, which most new tubes on the market are not subjected to. During the extensive TAD burn-in procedure, the tube’s cath- ode surface is formatted, which balances the tube’s emission and offers increased dynamic headroom. This in itself leads to a better overall response and smooth tone. TAD tubes offer maximum reliability, consistency and sturdiness for one goal: the ultimate tone! TAD BIAS SYSTEM true blackplate The bias setting of any amp has a noticeable impact on its anode construction tone and attack. The bias can be set “colder” for a cleaner sound or “hotter” for more punch and easier saturation.
