ABSTRACT:
A multi-stage solid state amplifier emulates the distortion associated with grid current flow in a multi-stage tube amplifier by means of a clipping device in the circuit between each series connected stage. In a particular embodiment, each stage includes a field effect transistor (FET) and the clipping device is a diode.
