Recomendations on a good book anyone..........


Any recomendations out there for a couple of good 'PRIMERS' which explain in laymans terms, the electronics of amps, preamps, solid state, tubes, single ended triods, gain stages, etc., etc., etc..

Something along the line of Harleys 'Guide to Hi-end Audio,
but geared more to understanding the difference behind the electronics in stereo components.......Thanks

Once you know a little more: Douglas Self's "Audio Power Amplifier Design Handbook" is a good one, although some have a religous stance against it. Randy Slone's "High Power Audio Amplifier Construction Manual" is ok since its half the price of self's book. But slone's is somewhat of a clone of self's book, however, he does present more working projects and hence the difference in titles-Design v. Construction.
Amd use your public library. Saved me $80 reading Martin Colloms "high performance loudspeakers" from there. They'll have some and can do interlibrary lone.
