Mystery hand built amp!

[Haselsh1]

I've always loved the EL34 'sound' since owning an Audio Sterling ETSE and living with its syrupy midrange for a few years through Audio Note AZ-2's. A year or so back I borrowed a set of KT88's for my current Prima Luna but sadly didn't get on with them too well. OK so it was the power amp that didn't get on with them, I thought they were excellent and loved the sound. So in spite of my amp being 'compatible' with a whole host of power valves, every time I switched off the power amp I'd get a bloody crack through the speakers. Put the EL34's back in, perfect.

Oh yeah, still have an entry into my bucket list that comprises a custom, hand built valve power amp based upon parallel single ended 300B's.

What a fabulous imagination I have

Think I've had the same dream . . . .

300b's with the extra grunt to drive most loads. P.E.R.F.E.C.T

I think the simple answer to your question is yes.

Possibly with a beneficial dollop of synergy. You say it looks simple inside, Simple is good.

I have a simple life and enjoy simple things Alan
