Re: Tube amp schematics
Depends on what you want... schematics or theory? Commercial amps or DIY schematics? There's 1000's of tube amp sites out there...
off the top of my head:
Commercial Schematics:
Schematic heaven, freeinfosociety, Blueguitar, Drtube (almost every marshall) Sloclone forum (hard to find ones)
DIY Schematics:
you can't go past ax84 IMO, I'm sure there are alot more.
Theory:
valvewizard.co.uk = Better than most published books.
aikenamps, tubecad, ++++
EDIT: Got a URL wrong

Blencowe's site has shifted to the freewebs site. BTW he is hoping to publish a book on this, the website is a bit of a dry run. I'll be in to buy it.edit, I see the address now redirects to the freewebs site. For a few weeks it was just dead.

Re: Tube amp schematics
Altho' someone here has probably mentioned it before, Jack Darr's book is also a great book for 1st-time builders (and the best chapters are free - still)

You just have to get used to the '60's-themed aims of the writer (when distortion was bad)
