Engineered as the easiest route to directly heated triode three watt hifi nirvana, the Get*Set*Go is a creation from the labs of diytube and Shannon Parks. The stereo design PCB uses easy to get iron and parts - no power tubes that require a second mortgage or boutique specialty wound transformers from a long dissolved Japanese company. The Get*Set*Go has an on-board 6SL7 driver and 6AX5GT rectifier, which feed the two 6B4G power tubes running in pure single ended Class A with no feedback. The output transformers are the splendid James 6113HS transformers available in the US from TC Tubes. Edcor 3.5K SET outputs also work wonderfully. The power transformer is the easily procured and affordable PA774 from Triode Electronics or the Edcor XPWR005-120.

A couple neat features of the design at a glance:
* meant for a pair 6B4G power tubes - a 6.3V 2A3 with modern and NOS supply
* 6B4Gs use DC filaments for quiet operation
* common filament supply design - ie just one power supply!
* tube rectified by a 6AX5GT (like a 6.3V 5Y3) with huge, cheap NOS stockpiles

It is a bare board kit meant for experienced tube hobbyists, and it includes:
* a new Get*Set*Go PCB driver that will last a lifetime thanks to FR4 fiberglass
* top & bottom silkscreen ensuring easy assembly and friendly modding
* a ruby red solder mask finish that will never make your amp look like a science fair project
* detailed schematics & a parts list with Mouser.com part numbers and easy cut-n-paste Mouser BOM
* email support provided and a growing community forum at diytube.com
* preview the manual(~300k PDF)

Most parts can be purchased easily through Mouser, and vendors are suggested for the others (ie tubes and tube sockets).
