In Reply to: Why is there no grid resistor for the power tube in this amplifier? posted by Iczerman on February 25, 2015 at 09:45:36:
On another thread where the built amp actually worked. If you provide enough phantom resistance, and remember it only has to be a few megohms, it will work. A dirty old tube socket may be just enough.Certainly not advised but this may be how people get amps to still work this flaw in place.
