Baby electron tube or transistor power amplifiers


The idea is an amplifier that does not need a fork lift.


An amplifier that can be comfortably held on the palm of hand.


Of excellent sound quality.


Operating in class A (electrons flowing all the time).


Low power (less than 1000mW) so that a conversation can be comfortably kept in the listening room.


Possibly battery powered.


Possibly one transistor such as Pleiades 2N3055 amp. Or one electron tube, WE417?


Baby output transformer if needed but of 20Hz to 20KHz bandwidth. It should be possibly as power out is low. Baby electron tube. Something cute.


An efficient baby power amp approaching the theoretical 50% efficiency.


Baby power amps should play well with baby linoleum Pleiades pyramid or cube (Auratone 5C type) fullrange speakers.
