Single-Ended 807 Tube Amplifier
|
I have stated in the past that my mate Don makes an amp a month. This month Don has completed an 807 amp based on a schematic designed by Matt from the USA and the same as I built a short time back. I took a short listen and thought it OK but a much longer review is required. Don’s iron is wound by Dyne which is near us (Melbourne, Australia) and Don’s superb enclosure bases are made by him from, once more, Australian Spotted Gum. Top plate is once more ABS and OPTs are James. This not only a smart looking amp but with some high quality passives under the bonnet and again a very neat wiring layout. In this build JJ filters caps were used. Don has another amp in the pipeline so stayed tuned. About one month from now (lol).
