An audio obsession from the start- Sam says: In 1958, when I was 16 years old, I became very interested in electronics, so I began to seriously study the subject and successfully built a five tube super heterodyne receiver with single ended 6V6 output tubes. It was this project that brought me into the audio field.
I then proceeded to build variations of this type of single channel receiver. One year later, I began building an improved version with push pull output tubes such as the 6V6, 6F6, 6L6, 2A3, etc. Once that was accomplished to my satisfaction, I wanted to build complete stereo systems, so my first project used four 6V6 output tubes in a push pull configuration. It was a beautiful realization of my efforts with wondrous sound.
When designing push pull circuits in triode mode with tubes such as the 2A3, even and odd number harmonics are minimized. Those projects were my favorites.
Wanting to know more, I studied the circuitry of all the world’s best audio systems, collecting over 500 famous schematic diagrams. Soon, I could draw them all out from memory.
Sam has memorized 5,000 circuits from audio to x-ray technologies.
