This is our DIY tube amplifier with famous Western Electric 300B triodes and Siemens C3g pentodes (here strapped in triode mode). It is a parallel single ended, class A amp with zero feedback and the output power of close to 20W per channel. The transformers were made by Mr. Milan Sebart from Slovenia, who we believe is a rank genius when it comes to winding transformers for tube amps. The engineering, design and construction of the amp (named "Dufresne") were entirely done by us alone. Sure, the amp cost a fortune in time, brains and money to build but now, 2 years down the road, we can safely say that the end result is priceless. :) The camera and sound were recorded separately with the Zoom Q3 A/V recorder and then put together in A/V editing software. The sound in this clip was recorded about 2 meters in front of the stereo system, with no enhancements or filters of any kind used before, during or after the recording process so this is how our stereo system actually sounds in the reality of our living room. The loudspeakers are our Tannoy HPD385's, the preamplifier is Rossellini UARSS and the CD player is Tascam CD701. Everything except the CD player is DIY, including all the cabling. The schematics, measurements and other details are published on our web site: www.moxtone.com .
