I've got a couple 6DJ8's, more than a few 6S19P's, four noval sockets, two 120:12V 20W wall-warts, one 35VA 1:1 isolation transformer, and one 35VA 12V filament transformer.
I thought it would be funny to make the cheapest single-ended amplifier that I possibly can.
My plan (detailed schematic to come):
Use a B+ of a whopping 170V derived from the isolation transformer, preferably solid-state regulated. Use the 120:12V wall-wart transformers in parafeed, as 800:8 output transformers. The choke loads would be Hammond 193C's at 20H 100mA 181R. I'm new to parafeed; would these be all right? I would use smaller cheaper ones but B+ voltage is precious and I need a lower DCR.
A SRPP using 6DJ8's at 170V should be able to provide the +- 25V pretty easily.
So what do you think? Am I crazy, or just very cheap? Does this amp have a chance of working?
