What about the late John Camille's SE211 that was in Sound Practices.For $30 you can get all the back issues on a disc, including the 4 articles on this amp. JC has a wealth of detail in these articles, and would be worth buying for any tube amp builder even if you don't build this design.
Follow Ups:
I think I would be quite interested in getting the CD archive. Is this magazine catored to the DIYer? Do they still run publications?The only other publication i've read in vacuum tube gear is "Glass Audio". However, in the past i've never been a real fan of hifi magazines (all the biased opinions that really didn't mean a thing when it came to listening the gear in your own living room).
I think I would be quite interested in getting the CD archive. Is this magazine catored to the DIYer? Do they still run publications?SP was a hardcore DIYer mag, with a ton of interesting articles and data, on amps, tubes, HE speakers and TTs. Unfortunately, it's not published anymore, but the disc of all articles is very much worth the money. Take a look at some of the sample articles at the link below. The pieces on the Camille 211 are very well described in theory and practice by a skilled engineer and have a lot of excellent detail implemention ideas. If you find anything written by John 'Buddha' Camille, read it, as it will surely contain a lot of nuggets of wisdom.

I read the articles on the Sphile website, and most of the others like PF, but it's only entertainment (like looking at Penthouse rather than having a shag) because having heard some of the gear and the way it's decribed, I find myself scratching my head in amazement that they can think a lot of it sounds good. aX is too expensive to subscribe to overseas for what I get out of it now.
Your secure online ordering doesn't seem to work.Could I make the transaction by e-mail? Do you accept Paypal?
It's not my site, it belongs to Joe Roberts the owner/publisher of Sound Practices. I'd suggest emailling him at info@southernelectricaudio.com and asking directly. Nice guy. I ordered mine through the site ages ago with no problems; perhaps it's glitching.
