Home Tube DIY Asylum

Do It Yourself (DIY) paradise for tube and SET project builders.

Re: Might be better to consider a different tube huh?

Joris:

If you want to keep the 12AT7 in an LTP arrangement but get lower output impedance and enhanced drive capability--- would an SRPP arrangement be helpful or a consideration?

What made me think of it is that one of my all time fave sounding amps... the Baby O designed by Gordon Rankin used a 12AT7 SRPP as the front end tube to drive a 2A3 single ended tube.

couldn't you keep the LTP arrangement and SRPP each side of the long tail paired tubes? And then, perhaps, tie down the cathodes with a stiff CCS? Or am I missing something?
