if the op is seriously asking the question, the answer is quite different from preamps and power amps
each has reasons, different reasons, to use few vs multiple tubes

@jpwarren58 Not a troll thread at all. Seems like a complicated way to reproduce music.please enlighten us, what would be a simpler way? So some of tubes are the same as the power transformers? https://splice.com/blog/vacuum-tubes-in-music/ https://www.electronics-tutorials.ws/transformer/audio-transformer.html https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Valve_audio_amplifier https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Aj3LNHqUt3A https://www.rs-online.com/designspark/building-a-valve-amplifier-part-1-design-components-and-layout as you posted the original query, hope you have the patience to absorb the info above for some basic knowledge on the subject |
One would think after 117 years of evolution (1904, invention of the vacuum tube) and with only 4 other components involved (R, C, L, transformer) engineers would have reached the optimal configuration for a tube amplifier by now. when did they invent the cow? would think they'd have figured out the optimal configuration for cooking a steak by now... |
