I'm still waiting for Cheap Jack to show us how his wonderful phono stage is done. And with only one tube!
Hi.It is easy to tell it to someone who knows tube design/build AND also gets music audition experience. But do YOU?c-J
I'm hoping you'll teach me, and Roger, a thing or two about tube design.
Getting back to the video...Me being a tube-design noob, I've always been quite confused about cathode biasing. Specifically, how the cathode resistor achieves a positive voltage on the cathode. I do understand the concept of the voltage drop (voltage being 'consumed' by the resistor and dissipated as heat...right?). But how does this voltage drop then put a positive voltage (of 2v in your example) onto the cathode? If some of the voltage in the cathode circuit is being consumed by the resistor doesn't that just lower the voltage supplied to the cathode? (Did I just answer my own question?) Roger, is there any way you could describe this process to help out a helpless noob like myself? Thanks!
All I see here is you avoiding the questions that are going to make you look stupid. Answer them and fail at it so we can all laugh at your stupidity. It's going to happen either way, so might as well get it over with now.
That said, I still make some casual bucks acting as a free-lance sound consultant.I build & sell to order, 4N pure silver interconnects & power cords for a premium price.
Hi.if you really want to learn audio electronics, particularly on tubes, may I suggest to read up"Radiotron Designer's Handbook, 4th edition" to learn it.Get the basic knowledge & then you'll understand what I am talking about tubes.c-J
Hi.More you talk more you sound like an empty vessel.Sorry emply vessels would not qualify for my teaching.Learn more audio electronics before you DARE challenge me!c-J
I don't know how much you might know or not know about tube circuits, but what's actually more interesting is how is this possible? Seriously, wouldn't either of these endeavors require at the very least some small degree of social interaction skills with other human beings? Steve
This is the first in a series of videos that intend to cover the entirety of tube preamp design. Starting with a single stage we will build on basic concepts to multistage amplifiers and their power supplies. Here is the link to the video: http://youtu.be/mrMGGHp8yLk and please follow our channel. We will post on AudioCircle when we put up new videos.

hey guys lets keep the language used here on the civil side shall we. engineers are what they are. i know because i have a number of good friends that are Me"s and EE's. they just plain drive you nuts if you try to convince them to think or explore out of the box. it is how they are taught and how they must operate at their work.

+1Havik, those kinds of attacks are unfortunately the norm on many other sites but we try to be more civil here on AC, whether the other side has earned that civility or not.
