New 5W tube amp with Hi gain channel
« on: August 23, 2021, 07:56:28 am »
Hi,
everyone, I'm new here , I'm currently building a new tube head , 5W output with two channels, I post it here because I want someone interested can hear my test sound clips , can tell me what do you think about it so I can further improve it . It has three preamp tubes (12AX7), one output tube(6V6GT), has two channels (each has two voices),with buffered FX loop. If it get good result here maybe I will start a one-man company selling it . this thread is not for advertising, it's just a test circuit. I really want is some honest review.

here are some videos that my friends play , video and audio recorded with iPhone 12 Pro

Normal channel ,voice A


Normal channel voice B


Hi gain channel voice B

It's just a test circuit , I'm building a prototype now, working with a local company to develop a solid state power supply with power scaling function.It is not finish yet.
