Home Tube DIY Asylum

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

Not a big fan of the voltage doubler, nor the HEAT they generate

If I were to get another HK Citation II, I would have to seriously consider a newly made power transformer with more reserve (overkill) to help out performance. I'm sure the original quality of the power transformer is fine. It's more the fact that it was run HARD near its limits for a lot of years, so many of them are stressed.

I also wonder if a pentode output would have been better in the long run.
