Donald,Please let us know what you believe the differences are between Gray and Black plates, regarding metallurgy !!
True, I only discussed one aspect, symmetry and size of the cathode. THAT is where most of the major differences are between the best modern and dinky vintage tubes.
I envision the cathode as the start of the DHT tube, much like the power supply is the start of the audio amp.
You addressed metallurgy ( actually "color" ) of the plate, how about metallurgy of the other two thirds, the grids, and the cathodes??
Think Jac isn't up to snuff in optimizing ALL areas???
'Ever had a chance to A-B EML 45s versus a NOS black plate 45 ??? What was that like for you?
