Hi Skunkie,
I'm Thom from the Netherlands and love ur video's.
At the time i'm bluiding my new speakers and love to pair them with a amplifiar of your design in the future.
But i saw your video on the expected low/no stock in the near future.
Right now i have a golden lion 5AR4 on order before they run out.
Can u give my/us a heads-up of what type tubes u will use in the future, so i can stock a couple?
Or what a you think you wil use in the future/are some good tubes to have?
I understand that somethings a projects dont work out, and i did buy them for "nothing", no hard feelings thats a gamble i take.
Sorry my English is not that good😅
Again love your videos and your channel!
many thanks, did order some 6sn7GTB(also 6SQ7 while i can find them).
KT88 are already out of stock, but i keep my eyes open.
Otherwise i will start with the 6SQ7/EL34 build😁
The KT88 design I am leaning towards uses a pair of ECC89 and 6SN7 tubes but I may sub the 6SN7 for some sort of vintage triode like a 6J5 or maybe a 2C22, both are NOS only.
Thanks, for ure reply.
Can i ask what pre amp tubes u wil use 2x12au7/12ax7? or something diffrent?
My next project is a push pull design that can use anything from an EL34 to a KT120 but is designed towards using a quad of KT88 or KT120 tubes. After that is a 2A3 single ended amp that uses a pair of those.
