I must tell you that my first project was actually a SE 300B  
I started with the classic loftin white circuit that you can find  
in Jean Hiraga’s book allthough he uses a ECC83 , I find  
a 6SN7 better suited for the purpose .  
The main problem is allways hum , the only way to get rid  
of that is by using DC on the filaments , and as ever good  
regulation and filtering of the power supply will help . ! ! ?  
I am a fervent supporter of negative Bias , it makes the amp  
faster and the sound doesn’t have to go through a capacitor  
and you dont waste power in a cathode resistor .  
I Chose a 3K primary because it gives less distortion then  
a lower plate resistance (which would give more power)  
Okay the first schematic is exactly that  
V1 half a 6SN7 and Zo a Lundahl LL1623/90mA 3K primary  
The HT can be anyware from 250 to 550 Volts  
That is if you use Krone Valves you can exceed the 400 Volts  
and adjust the 10 Kohm if you exceed 400 Volts  
The 2 nd part of the schematic are for those of you  
who fear that the negative bias supply might have a  
problem which would destroy your precious tubes  
The Third part of the schematic is my version of an interstaged  
300B, I used the 6DN7 which is a marvelous tube that has  
a very interesting power section 10 watts , good for 30 mA  
at 300 volt and a nice little second section  
note the 10/400 cap is an MKP  
Anyway have fun if you intend to build this you ‘ll be in for a  
pleasant surprise .  
About the power supply :  
The simplest way is a tube rectified choke loaded supply ,  
Its is extremely musical and easy to build  
The sound quality changes dramatically with the rectifier tube  
The 5U4G will work so will a GZ34,32,5R4  
But the winners are GZ37 & 274b  
If you want to use a semiconductor engineerd PSU check out the  
PSU we offer as a kit.  
You can buy a nice housing as well , we have 2 models  
The classic one and the modern one with cooling fans and the tubes  
and transformers inside (safer)
