I still have an itch for a valve amp. I've gotten an SRPP pre almost done with a little help and need to sort out its chassis mounting now.

I thought of an SE amplifier as it's simpler to construct perhaps and has fewer parts. The idea is more to learn about transformer winding here, have some fun and learn.

This is where I'd appreciate some help from the forum as I am well out of my depth here. I still have to re-learn high school physics about anode and cathode so I am looking for something fairly simple and fun but with good sonics.

I was thinking along the lines of either a 6F5P push pull (because I have a quad and they're very inexpensive)

or a 6C33C SET.

I'd appreciate your thoughts and input. I'll post up a first rough start (no laughing OK) for a SET OPT for the 6C33C SE OPT using opt_da shortly.
