my god they would be hard to beat. Ime size matters! I will buy them when your done ha ha

Btw my amp I subbed in 10y in place of pt15 so trans where well over size. 16 ohm on 8ohm tap.10k I changed out the cathode r and never checked the voltage because it sounded so good. One night late when my last pt15 died. That was 18months ago. Best amp I have built or hacked. 94 db speakers and the mid bass power is unfathomable. I suspect I am in class A2 driving with ml6 no sense because any who tried one of those will tell you how bad they are and using lundahl pp interstage parallel feed. Its a beast I will measure it one day when it is replaced with a new 814amp dan 18 hours a day I have ben running it on and on. try that with your beautiful type ten. I have 3 of these they live in storage for ever.

yea I tried ratheon box oxide filament. They where not happy in there.

I have since been hoarding all sorts of tt filament pentodes and triodes in the hope I can recreate the sound of this amp. I guess when you ask only twenty milliamps of a 200ma supply it is grateful of that also.
