Item specifics
Brand: DynacoAmplifier Type: Power Amplifiers
Type: Amplifiers  
Our newest version of the EF86 board has been slightly revised to accept 6922, 6DJ8, 7308, and 6CG7 in the phase inverter position as well as 12AU7, 12BH7, and ECC99 that were previously supported.

All kits include instruction manual, but not tubes, each board requires 2 EF86 or equivalent tubes and one of either 12AU7/ECC82 (or equivalent),12BH7 or ECC99.
This board is made with heavier (2oz) copper and plated through holes. Standard coupling capacitors are Xicon metalized polypropylene. You can also upgrade and get Solen Metallized Polypropylene Capacitors from our website.  www.triodeelectronics.com

Also, we have devised a simple project to convert the Triode ST-70 driver board into a microphone pre-amplifier! Check out our website for sample schematics!!!

Our Board's are a great choice if you really want to learn more about how your amplifier operates, too. You see, unlike many other  Kit's, you are not totally locked in to only certain components, nor are you stuck with unchangeable circuit values which limit the versatility of your amplifier and further modifications. There's no "big secrets",you don't need permission from a "guru" to change or tweak it, the manual has instructions for about every change you could imagine making. Instructions are included for triode connecting the output tubes, which will give you a taste of hi-end triode-itis for the cost of 4 resistors, about $1. So, you've got a choice..you can just plug in & play, or you can do your own experimenting if you'd like to, learn a lot and become your own neighborhood Dynaco guru. And you won't break the bank doing it, either.

The stock board parts kit includes metal film resistors, polypropylene & polystyrene capacitors, which do just fine..but if you like you can modify many component values and try different or exotic parts and tweak to your heart's content. The boards will adapt to output tubes which need very low drive circuit impedance/ DC grid resistance like 8417's- or may be modified to whip out enough voltage to drive 6B4's!! (even 300B's might work.).

The board sounds fine, even with the off the shelf, current production tubes, and special grading and matching is not absolutely necessary. It is a good example of what can be done with the original type of circuit with improved components, and makes a good case for the virtues of simplicity and short signal path in audio design. Our PC boards emulate the simple but highly effective (due to the short signal path and single gain stage) original Dynaco circuit, but with lower hum, noise, distortion and a wider voltage swing across heavier loads than a 7199,6GH8,6BL8/ECF80, 6U8/ECF82 or 6AN8 are capable of.
The manual includes information on adapting the amplifier to different output & board tubes, adjusting resistor & capacitor values if desired, plus a comprehensive Troubleshooting Guide.
