One of my friend who own WE16A using WE555 drivers with Selenium power supply
need to add field coil tweeters for extend higher range in his system.
So I remember that I have seen a nice looking tube power supply in Jeffrey Jackson's blog.
And my friend totally agree with this kind of tube & appearance.
He's select field coil tweeter from Atelier Rullit that has higher impedance than WE555 driver.
Atelier Rullit said this tweeter need voltage between 120 - 200 VDC for operation.
So I just design power supply to supply about 165 VDC with voltage regulator tubes.
0A3 (75V) series with 0B3 (90V) to stabilize output voltage.
Main rectifier tubes using large WE355A Thyratron tube with grid as plate.

Indicate voltage & current for one channel.
Do not compare with other types of power supply but for now this power supply work well
and field coil tweeter sound very good.
Cheers!!!
Mr Lee recently helped us with a loan which we used to expand our business. The process was amazing! He was in touch with us frequently to check in and to update us on what was happening throughout our loan repayment. He was friendly and approachable and always able to clear up questions that we had. We had such a great experience working with Ben!!
