RE: here is my Oken pics

LT, hi again. Beautiful is all I can say. Thanks for sharing the pix. It would be fun to hear everything play. Going to the land down under would be wild. I think the next treat on your audio journey may be found at least in part in the use of interstage transformers. There are other techniques - choke load the plate and choke load the grid in a C coupled arrangement. Inductance Can Be Fun. I have not gone down this latter road having been so amazed by interstage transformer results. My sonic fav amp is - input transformer to grid of 1/2 6SN7 interstage coupled to grid of 45 tube. Output iron is MagneQuest DS-050. I have been thinking about changing everything and going with parallel feed MQ iron - output trans & choke but I keep listening to this amp. All I can say is it makes magic. Maybe it sounds better than it is supposed to. Who knows? Now that September is in view listening sessions will get better. All I can say is if you get it right a two stage amp interstage coupled can produce major mojo. But, this is only one approach - certainly not the only approach. And, so it goes. Happy Listening.
