Klappentext Suitable for anyone working with tube audio equipment - as an electronics hobbyist, audiophile or audio engineer, this title builds on the success of the first with technology and technique revisions throughout and, significantly, a major new self-build project, worked through step-by-step, which puts into practice the principles and techniques. Praise for the previous edition: "If you actually intend to create, modify, restore or repair tube audio equipment, I would highly recommend purchasing Building Valve Amplifiers even if you are seasoned by many years of practical experience. I am convinced that all readers will be amazed at the quantity of new useful knowledge it contains."--Andrew Marshall's AUDIO IDEAS GUIDE Magazine "Brings together all the necessary details to enable even the novice to build satisfactory valve amplifiers. More than that, it is a primer for electronic construction, setting out the correct way to do things so that, if followed, there is a very high chance that the equipment will work first time. Thoroughly recommended for experienced builders and novices alike."--ELECTRONICS WORLD Zusammenfassung Suitable for anyone working with tube audio equipment - as an electronics hobbyist! audiophile or audio engineer! this title builds on the success of the first with technology and technique revisions throughout and! significantly! a major new self-build project! worked through step-by-step! which puts into practice the principles and techniques.

Report
"It is a highly detailed book on the actual design and construction of tube amplifiers.the book covers planning, metalworking, wiring and testing. A real nitty gritty book for hobbyists and serious manufacturers. For example, the book details things like how to orient audio and power transformers to avoid problems of magnetic flux leakage from affecting other transformers or the tubes themselves. The test section is excellent." --ElectronicDesign.com, March 17, 2014
