Yup, a slip 'o' the finger must'ave been; it's an X-100A, the one with 7189 outputs and 1n4007 ss rectifiers. It took a bit of searching on the net to find the correct schematic for it as there seem to be so many versions. I already had a schematic for an X-100 which superficially similar except for the phase splitter tubes and op's which in this case were EL84's and valve rectifier, tho the main voltages were within a 'cooeee' of each other as we say down here. Thanks for the offer to advise, but I haven't all the info right here in front of me, also as I mentioned I moded the PS to bring the voltages down, so what I would like to do is give you the spec values and actual readings that are approx' 5V lower, so if you don't mind I'll email you direct, if that's Ok with you.
Yeah you are right about the Sony that's why it isn't being used on a regular basis. You really got me going on the 6aq5 thing. Looking around on the net I found some 6v6/6aq5 SE circuits I could use, so I might go down that road, the main appeal being what you wrote about the sound and the compact dimension of these tubes. I really don't need an amp that takes up twice as much space than one that puts out the same power and sounds similar. I've got enough other gear to house already, tuner, CD player, Hi-Fi Video, DVD player, Denon step up tranny for my DL 103 cartridge, Technics SP10 MKII DD turntable with it's separate SH10E power supply unit, the LP collection, CD's, VHS tapes... OH GAWD! Get the pic? Actually you may be able to enlighten me on this as I can't recall ever seeing anyone asking or thinking of this question..., but what is the difference between a guitar amp circuit and an audio one? The reason I'm asking is on one site I found a circuit with parallel 6v6's (I think), that is one tube feeds into the next then the tranny for more power. I wouldn't mind something like that..., would that be hard to implement do you
think?
