A tale of three 6V6 Audio Amps

Revisiting a homebrew audio amplifier
Some years ago, as a teenager of 15, I decided to homebrew an audio amp I had seen in an article in a 1958 Radio-TV Experimenter magazine. The article showed construction of the Arkay A-12 Hi-Fi amplifier kit and was complete with schematic and under-chassis pictorial. The set had push-pull 6V6GT output tubes and was rated at 10 Watts RMS output. Since I had stripped a few junk radios and TV sets, I had accumulated many of the needed parts. I also ordered a blank chassis, four knobs, a tube, and a few resistors and capacitors from the Lafayette Radio catalog. This is the result.
