Following the success of the first generation RH amps - RH84 and RH807, mostly, I have developed a 2nd generation of RH amps, for KT88/6550 (RH88) and for 300B (RH300B, obviously).
The RH88 is long in the making, I have not done anything in particular with the basic breadboard of the amp since 2005 when I first posted about it on various forums. As far as I know, very few if any diy-er has built it... mostly due to the fact that KT88 tubes are much costlier than EL84, as well as the output transformers, etc.
Since I was interested in making something truly universal, that would allow me to just listen to music and enjoy tube rolling (since I do not have a lot of free time to devote to hobbies and simila), I have developed further the RH88 schematics to the RH Universal model.
The RH Universal lets you use a wide variety of output tubes, from EL34 and KT66, via 6L6 and 5881, to the more powerful KT88, 6550, 8417 tubes. 7027 can be used as well, but you would need a switch or jumper to disconnect pin 1 from pin 8 (necessary for the relatively common EL34).
The driver tube is, of course, foreseen to be an ECC81/12AT7 (i.e. some tube from this family), while E180CC, 5965, and a few others can be used with success as well.
The double rectifier can be chosen between 5R4 and GZ34, any rectifier capable of 200mA DC output will do.
Since there is a considerable difference in anode dissipation between EL34 (25W) and 6550 (35W), the rectifier choice will let the user vary the B+ for a range of approximately 50V. Thus with a 5R4 anode dissipation with any tube will not exceed 25W (safe for EL34 and KT66), while the GZ34 will allow more power with KT88, 6550, 8417 due to the higher B+.
Any tube inserted in the output tube socket will draw approx. 100mA. Approx. because there will be a difference in g2 current draw...
Well, I hope this one will get people going :D
