Rating:  Summary: Best Tube Book Out There Review: This is the best book on tubes and tube amplifier design out there. This book has been the defacto standard since the day it's was written and still is. I have about 10 books on tube amplifier design and this, by far, is the most comprehensive and complete book of them all. If you can afford to buy a book on tubes, buy this one and neglect the others. F. Lanford Smith includes chapters on the basics of tube operation w/ and w/o all the math. He also includes a chaper on math operations - from algebra to calculus - so that you can understand the things that he presents, mathematically, within the book. You'll find the standard Fender/Gibson/Marshall designs, in there, complete w/ methods of analysis of those types of amplifiers. Very good book, overall. Darwin
