Nice touch to swith from pentode/triode. Are you going to incorporate ultralinear in the future? Have you tried a variable pot to vary nfb rather than a switch from hi to lo? Good going.
nice sound! hey im as well interested in building one for my own, im majoring in electronic engineering, but i have not found yet books related to valve amplification, could you recomend me anyone?
@Maccite9 The Ultimate Tone by Kevin O'Connor, Valve Amplifiers by Morgan Jones and How to Design Valve Amplifier Preamp by Merlin from the ValveWizard website are all excellent books. Morgan Jones also has a book on construction techniques.
wow, excellent tone and crunch here mate. I've just been reading your blog too and am very interested in building a tube amp too. will start with some reading material first I think!

@analogistheone I may do ultralinear on a future amp. Part of this amps charactor is power valve breakup. UL would reduce this.
I tried a pot while tweaking but found the amount of variation in tone didn't justify it so I put a switch from my two favourite positions.
Thanks for checking out my vid
