I have a couple of PP45 amps and they do sound very nice indeed. In the past I had an amp that could run 45's.
But I put together this Type 26 Directly coupled to a 45 stereo amp, from spare parts and threw on a couple of cheap Hammond OPT's.
The thing really has a nice quality to it's musical presentation.
I only use a passive preamp and drive GPA 604's to a fairly loud level.
It sounds very diffrerent from my Ref 2A3 amp. I really like the combination of 26 drving a 45. Maybe at some point I'll rebuild this
amp with a nice chassis better wiring and better OPT's.
But for now this little ugly amp sure sounds sweet!
Have fun

Is this another "modern" power supply or conventional?
I got a cheap used pair of 45's off of EBay.
Have not had the motivation to do anything with them yet.

I used the 2 Hammond 159Y and 159ZA I had on hand, worked out fine.
The PT was a surplus military pull with sec DCR at 35 ohms.
My implementation of 26 driving 45 is very satisfying and its not even optimized as a design.
Go ahead get some music pumping thru 45 pair!
Have fun
Willie
