Ultralinear was invented by Daniel Kerhoes and David Hafler back in the 50's as a way of getting lower distortion compared to PP pentode. Most famously utilized in the Stereo 70 amp (world's best selling tube amp!).
PP Ultralinear VS PP Pentode
After reading the Carver threads , I became interested in what Mr. Carver was doing for a circuit
different from the masses . Unfortunately my expertise does not allow me to quite understand
his explanation for his circuit preference .
So , I am asking for a description of the difference , in the final sound , of PP pentode as compared to PP ultralinear .
My present amp is PP Ultralinear , so I am familiar with that type of sound signature .
Thank You .
