Home Tube DIY Asylum

Do It Yourself (DIY) paradise for tube and SET project builders.

RE: red plates ... bob and weave ...

12 watts would ideally be a different kind of amp.
How about a 12BZ7A (using both sections) driving a Lundahl
interstage, driving a pair of 6L6GC-- Sylvania,
or Russian, of course! One can, of course, D.C. couple this amp.
IF you do that, the 12BZ7A is out-- too much gain. Look
for a tube with about 40-45 amp-factor for that.

Run the 6L6's ultralinear-- or use separate G2
voltage that is a bit UNDER the 6L6 plate voltage.
ALTEC-- and myself-- proved that sounds mucho betra!

This G2 voltage must be clean-- a case for several
R.F. chokes and local high-quality (Mundorf
Silver/Oil, etc.) caps.

Alternatively, use a 6SL7 at the front. The interstage tranny
will be a different ratio. Get these ratios from the U.S.
