Post Subject: Mindless finger burningPosted by shannon on: 3/4/2015

Had some fun experimenting with 6e5p driver stage.
playing with difrent output transformrs and resistors found that the stage can drive a speaker with ground connected to air. mabye this is widley know i did not know. + of speaker connected to bad output transformer - not connected to anything, sound coming out of speaker.
Main thing was 6n1p "buffer?" to lower input signal, then 6e5p stage connected to ss monoblock with 3uf 950b. sounded interesting enough to encourage me to build Zaratustrawith proper 6e5p set gassed driver stage.
Zaratustra what a beast that thing is. Is this the most powerfull fully pure class a amp in existance? i think maybe. This will take some time, something i have little of. side note: I dont think any high power, utra lf drivers, with proprer tone exist. bass array is still the only option.
