Best starter books would be the Gerald Weber 2nd and 3rd books and the DVD, the Dave Funk Tube Amp Workbook, the Dave Hunter series of books, and the Jack Darr book which can also be found for free online at the Millet site, see link below.

As you get more knowledge, then you want to get the Kevin O'Connor "The Ultimate Tone (TUT)" series of books. TUT3, TUT1, TUT2, TUT5, TUT4, in that order would be best. Check out his site at www.londonpower.com. You should also get an RCA tube manual which you can get from www.tubesandmore.com. RC30 is a good one.

Also, check out Randall Aiken's site for some great info.

As the subject gets more involved, there is no way to avoid the math, so you have to learn to apply yourself and figure it out.

Another cool site is the tone lizard site.
