  • Sunn Solarus with 2-EL34

    Probably been asked before, but I couldn't find any on a search of the site. I would appreciate any help. Thanks

    All the Sunn amps of that era were similar. They made KT88 versions and EL34 versions. Each of those tube types used a particular PI tube circuit, 6AN8 for KT88 and 7199 for EL34. The rest was details, really.

    I don;t have the Solarus handy, maybe in my paper files, but this one is typical of the El34 power stages:

    Education is what you're left with after you have forgotten what you have learned.

      Also, the Sunn amps were adaptations of Dynaco tube amp circuits of the same era. They're basically Dynaco MkIII and Dynaco MkIV power amps with an extra gain stage in front for guitar. The Dynaco schematics are easy to find.
