I am currently looking for a new direct coupled design, something along the line of the Monkey on a stick maybe. I don't have a direct coupled 300B design handy, but one based off of a Loftin-White 2A3 design comes to mind. Should be fairly easy to design & build. Monkey on a stick??

That's why you see it in many broadcast amps. Yep... triodes don't amplify RF very well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michaelwjones Posted August 22, 2021 Share Posted August 22, 2021 After reading Mz. Kitty’s post, I decided to replace my KR Audio 300b tubes with my new WE300b tubes. After frittering the morning away, I completely agree with her assessment. A fine vail has been removed and the sound is clear and precise. I especially note it on strings; fascinating to hear the bow or fingers move. No flab in the bass, either. A serious & worthwhile improvement. BTW, they glow in daylight, too.

MZKITTY Posted August 23, 2021 Share Posted August 23, 2021 Wow, I should get a commission on that sale! Seriously, we were so impressed with the differences we heard too. And the blue glow is cool! Enjoy! MZKITTY 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I ride my motorcycle up around the Chattanooga area occasionally, maybe when the weather cools a bit I might stop by Rossville and see if WE has a demo system set up.
