Starting with a better
mechanical chassis, using chokes and tube rectification (in most units) and great output
transformers they appear to be significantly superior to the Siemens 2000
amps.
All listed amps use
push pull EL84 output stages (except where otherwise noted). |

Very early
(1952) stand alone version for the Pantason projectors (also for the "Selecton").
Very, very heavy (weighs more than 20kg) it is carrying a push pull
output stage with 2 EL12/375 tubes.

very nice looking amp. |

Smaller (rated at 6 watts) light sound amp with push-pull
ELL80 output stage and EL95 as oscillator tube for the tone lamp. T3/1 version
with transistorized (OC603) input for magnetic sound.
Very nice amps with ultralinear OPT (but wired as tetrode)
with 8 and 16 Ohms output taps.
Clck here for T3/1 circuit. |
