| Affordable US Made Tube Pre/Power or Integrated Options @hilde45 you're very welcome! Best, Aric | |
| Affordable US Made Tube Pre/Power or Integrated Options @hilde45 More tubes are used for the power supply in my preamps, being both tube rectified and tube regulated- the two 12A_7 tubes do the stage amplification and buffer job. A tube rectifier is smoother than diodes as there's no diode switching oc... | |

| Aric Audio Super 2A3 SET @jond No problem at all! I’m using One Electron OPTs in this amplifier, which outperformed several other brands (which I won’t name so as to not defame any brands/products), and they have the best blend of what I like to call "retained energy" fro... | |

| Best 6NS7 Preamp for a Pass Labs XA25 amp @skiroe Greetings! I was notified that my name had popped up and wanted to chime in briefly. Yes, I am the same Aric Audio that was selling tube buffers on eBay a little over ten years ago. I was a solid state guy back then and used very low effi... | |
| Pure Class A SS vs Tube Amp Just FYI, all single ended tube amplifiers, large or small, run in pure Class A, and some. When pushed, they will run in Class A2- if the power tube grid becomes positive and draws grid current. Designing a pure Class A tube amplifier is not only ... | |
| Can you tell me why I didn't like the Reference 3a MM's? @jgoldrick Thanks, I'm glad you're enjoying the preamp! I was just looking to help a bit regarding the "high gain" you were experiencing. The 12AX7 has an overall gain factor of 100 and the 5751 is 70, so both of these are considered high-Mu/high ... | |
