Replace it or reject it?

Tube DIY Asylum

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

The HK deuce I am working has a 39 ohm resistor + .04uf cap in series from the 16ohm speaker tap to ground. I don't have these parts on hand and I wonder if they are necessary for the proper operation of the amp. I have seen a similar circuit on the heathkit W5 that they called a tweeter saver. I left it off of that amp with no apparent harm to the amplifier or the sound. Should I get the replacement parts or can I leave them off? regards, dak
