Single Ended Triodes (SETs), the ultimate tube lovers dream.

RE: Budget speakers to pair with SET amp

Thank you, sir!

Brilliant information. I noted the unusual choice of driver tube in my own research. Knowing the designer, it makes sense. His knowledge of analog video was encyclopedic. Of course he used a tv tube. He also had a tendency toward altruism. It would be just like him to try to improve a design by reducing the cost and barrier to entry. Hard to beat a $5 tube in an audio amp. The 6P36S must have some specific characteristic that he was after.

I've been hesitant to crack the thing open for fear of messing up some subtle tuning, but it seems that some mysteries can't be solved any other way.

If you're interested, I'll post what I find inside. It will probably be a few days. I have a huge collection of tubes to test for estate liquidation.
