Home Tube DIY Asylum

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

RE: P2SE high bias

I've set up amps to run 6S3P-Es at 21 watts dissipation, and the tubes have lasted for years. When you say above 21 watts exactly how much above 21 watts do you mean? These tubes can take a beating, IIRC Michael Samra has run them at around 25-26 watts and reported they sounded very good at that dissipation. Of course it would take a couple years to know exactly how that dissipation affects tube life, so the jury is out on that one.
