------------------------------ From: kentp@phoenix.princeton.edu (Kent Mclean Peterson) Subject: Tube designs Date: Fri, 18 Feb 1994 03:12:08 GMT First I have been informed that some of the better designs for tube amps were originally published by Mullard and Williamson. I have also been informed that these designs are in the public domain, but thus far through the engineering library here, have only been ablle to find an ultralinear design by Williamson. I would like, however, to do this design in triode and in a class a. I don't know if these original designs are single ended or push pull. I assume the latter. Anyway, if someone could direct me to either of these designs or another tube design that people feel is high in quality I would of questions.

Second question is where is the best place to get parts for this project. Is sonic frontiers it? What other sources are there for high quality transformers and other parts? Thank you, Kent Peterson
