I think this should be the first or at least the second step in SE amp design or DIY.
http://glass-ware.stores.yahoo.net/seampcad1.htmlI think it needs an XP 32-bit computer.

Dont pay a penny for them.

I keep an old an laptop around just to run those TubeCad programs on. They're really handy. If you still have something with Win7 on it there's a free XP emulator for that.
It's a shame he hasn't had the time to update them.

If you want to move beyond the old "XP" google "spice tube models" and see what comes up. A lot of tube loving audio amateurs have done a lot of work modeling tubes and tube amplifiers using the spice circuit simulator.

You can download XP for free from Microsoft now and run it in a virtual machine:

John Broskie's programs are very helpful. As was stated, too bad he hasn't had time to update them. They run pretty well in Linux wine. I keep a dual boot machine with XP on it also, just for them.
Sure, better simulators are available, but his are simple and easy to use.
