I recognise that this paper is a very selective ramble through the history of audio, and an incomplete account of the contribution of D.T.N. Williamson, but I discovered that trying to describe the ‘Williamson’ amplifier out of context was quite difficult, and I suspect, somewhat less interesting than the story which resulted. The quest for high fidelity sound reproduction is a good story and perhaps this paper will encourage more interest in the subject. I hope it will also encourage the rescue and restoration of the surviving Williamson amplifiers. P.R.S.

  • Ultra-Linear Operation of the Williamson Amplifier
    Ultra-Linear Operation of the Williamson Amplifier DAVID HAFLER and HERBERT I. KEROES The Famous “Williamson” can be improved simply by replacing the output transformer and making a few minor changes in other components. The results are well worth the effort and expense. ollowing the original appearance of the preceding article on Ultra- F Linear operation of power output tubes, considerable interest has been evidenced in the application of this new circuit improvement to the famous Williamson amplifier. The William­ son circuit has been publicized in several arrangements including at least one commercial one, and the configur­ ation is undoubtedly the most popular high-quality audio circuit ever devel­ oped. For many people there is little necessity to attempt to improve this basic amplifier circuit. Its listening quality is excellent; it is easy to con­ struct; and it provides top quality at a cost comparable with units which cannot measure up to its capabilities. The one category in which the W il­ liamson amplifier is significantly de­ ficient is with regard to efficiency and power-output capabilities. Peak power output is less than 15 watts, and it takes a 450-volt supply at approxi­ mately 130 ma to achieve this power output.

  • Simple Class a Amplifier
    Wireless World, April 1969 Simple Class A Amplifier A 10-W design giving subjectively better results than class B transistor amplifiers by J. L. Linsley Hood, M.I.E.E. During the past few years a number of excellent designs have been published for domestic audio amplifiers. However, some of these designs are now rendered obsolescent by changes in the availability of components, and others are intended to provide levels of power output which are in excess of the requirements of a normal living room. Also, most designs have tended to be rather complex. In the circumstances it seemed worth while to consider just how simple a design could be made which would give adequate output power together with a standard of performance which was beyond reproach, and this study has resulted in the present design. Output power and distortion In view of the enormous popularity of the Mullard "5-10" valve amplifier, it appeared that a 10-watt output would be adequate for normal use; indeed when two such amplifiers are used as a stereo pair, the total sound output at full power can be quite astonishing using reasonably sensitive speakers. The original harmonic distortion standards for audio amplifiers were laid down by D. T. N. Williamson in a series of articles published in Wireless World in 1947 and 1949; and the standard, proposed by him, for less than 0.1% total harmonic distortion at full rated power output, has been generally accepted as the target figure for high-quality audio power amplifiers. Since the main problem in the design of valve audio amplifiers lies in the difficulty in obtaining adequate performance from the output transformer, and since modern transistor circuit techniques allow the design of power amplifiers without output transformers, it seemed feasible to aim at a somewhat higher standard, 0.05% total harmonic distortion at full output power over the range 30Hz-20kHz.

  • An Active Speaker Deploying 1927 Era Technology for Boosting Vintage Radio Outputs, Or for 21St Century Ipod Use
    An Active Speaker deploying 1927 era technology for boosting vintage radio outputs, or for 21st Century iPod use. Dr. H. Holden, August, 2015. Introduction: After studying and restoring the Grebe MU-1 radio from the mid 1920’s it occurred to me that it would be great to have an “active speaker” for it. This modern term had not been coined in the 1920’s but is commonplace today. Most radios of the 1920’s era had a simple single triode output stage based on a UX- 201-A style triode tube or the UX-112-A. These developed relatively low audio power, typically 80 to 150 milli-watts to drive a horn or cone speaker of the time. However higher power tubes were available to drive larger speakers and some radios had more substantial audio output stages. They relied on battery eliminators rather than actual batteries to power them. By 1929 some “add on amplifiers” such as the Loftin–White had arrived on the scene. These were a direct coupled class A amplifier based on a 24 and 45 type tube. The direct coupling avoided the cost of an additional inter-stage transformer and it also avoided the vagaries of the audio frequency response of the inter-stage transformer. The Loftin –White design pre-dated the Williamson amplifier with KT66 beam tetrodes which appeared in 1947. The Loftin-White amplifier allowed the audio power to be boosted to the 1 watt arena. However it needed an HT supply of 450V @ 30mA or 13.5 watts total from the HT supply alone (excluding filament supplies) and could not run on batteries.
