For years, author Rudolf Moers searched for a textbook about electron tube
amplifiers in order to learn how to design amplifiers using electron tubes,
given that one has a reasonable knowledge of analog electronics.

What a conceit! given that there are no end of books on designing amplifiers
using valves around.

martian market?

More to the point,

http://www.amazon.com/Designing-Audi.../dp/007164024X

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/024...8Q62EBGRNZGRTZ

Both of these books are at least about current technology.

Do you expect he'd explain things like how to unpot his transformers so you
can see their construction? IIRC he has said he puts hardened steel balls
into the pot mix to stop any other engineer from examining his work. So I
guess he prefers to be a 'guru wizard' with his 'magic secrets' rather than
someone willing to explain the details of engineering. If so, not what I'd
look for in the author of a technical textbook.

Slainte,

Jim

But they are from a foreign land, which knows not of the honourable

I already have Doug Self's book and a damn good read it is too. But is does not
cover valves (tubes) and I was thinking of the book I suggested as a modern
version of RDH4 (The Bible) not as a treatise on modern amp design.

It was a tad tongue in cheek Jim

I used to sell transformers to Tim years ago when I worked for Clarke &
Smith (happy Vortexion days!)....

He literally used to draw his designs on the back of a fag packet
(just that one time though )

Aah Vortexion. A worthy name from the past:-)
I used to have a CBL6 and a Vortexion mixer!

That was pretty common. I knew a chap from Leevers Rich
who did the same thing, plus "shirt cuff" calculations!
