ABSTRACT:
The output section of a musical instrument performance amplifier comprises a pair of high impedance power field effect transistors connected to an output transformer to provide a relatively low push-pull drain load that effectively presents a high impedance constant current source to a loudspeaker. The amplifier, having such high impedance constant current source output, amplifies and sustains instrument sound, provides large amounts of power to the speaker over a wide range of speaker impedances, and enables production of high power harmonics.
