300B PSET


I love singled ended 300B for its musicality, tone, refinement, basically that mid range magic. However 6-8 watt 300B in single ended configuration usually lacks low and high frequency extension. Is a well executed parallel single ended 300B amp putting out 18-20 watts the best of both world with better bass and yet retaining that mid range magic?

I have designed both SET and PSET and still make both. My experince, as mentioned above is that a well designed SET should not compromize dynamic authority. Less power should mean less bass.
PSET amps done right can provide the best of both worlds. You are still within the single ended topology but simply addition another tube in the mix for more output power.
as mentioned, the power supply is every bit as importnant as the circuit design. A great circuit is useless with a proper power supply just like a great power supply is useless powering an inferior circuit. You need BOTH.....
