RE: Losses in Output Transformers

So far, I've never seen an accurate
tube characteristics chart-- or plate-
curve sets that were anything better than a set
of suggestions, and nothing more.

Even those figures vary considerably. A good
example is the 12BZ7A. Some charts look as
if the tube isn't linear enough for audio.

Charts from another MFR. looks just like a good 6SN7.
SO__ what gives?

What gives is WHAT DOES IT ACTUALLY DO?

TWO ways to find out for sure: (1) run your
own plate curves. (2) LISTEN to what it is
doing, using different voltages & currents.

I do both. Because you have to do it.
