2A3 Directly Heated Triode Stereo Amplifier
Drawing preview
Lo scenario

Designing a single-ended tube amplifier using the classic 2A3 power triode, suitable for driving efficient speakers. The schematic includes a 6SN7 input/driver stage RC-coupled to the output stage, with a full-wave bridge rectifier and choke-filtered power supply.

Cosa contiene questo disegno

Leggi le decisioni che ne stanno alla base.

01

Use a bridge rectifier with center-tapped transformer to provide full-wave rectification

02

Directly heated cathode biasing with a bypassed cathode resistor for stable operating point

03

RC coupling between stages for simplicity and reliable DC blocking

This minimal circuit topology can be reused for any directly-heated triode (e.g., 45, 300B) by adjusting bias and load values.
