Re: Can we talk about books?

I know there are lots of guitar amp books out there... Dan, I've found a lot of interesting books at this site. They're all FREE and downloadable 8) http://www.pmillett.com/tecnical_books_online.htm Dan Torres' book, Inside Tube Amps is also a good one. You may already be familiar with these. If so...

Dartanion, what kind of finish did you use on your chassis? Looks like it's bead-blasted.

Most amps can work within a range of bias. Ken used -30mA and said "set it and forget it." Allynmey found bias at -49mA in two of Ken's amps. Some builders have found a better sound with a bias other than -30mA. The bias is tweakable :D

Jem, thanks for the suggestions. Appropriate changes have been made. The schem shows a center tap for the heater supply, therefore "virtual" center tap not shown. Either is acceptable as far as I know.

Your energy inspires and depresses me Tim. Dan, if you could see my mesh deck chair, leaned back at 45º, my studio flat panel monitor at the edge of the desk, a Contour Shuttle with programmed buttons! About the most energy I expend is drawing a LONG line :D As far as programs go, I just start usin...
