Home Tube DIY Asylum

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

With only Lowthers to drive...

I'd go for the ideas you suggest:

1/ triode strap the output tubes

2/ add a choke and hence convert the PS to choke input

Both steps will greatly increase the sonics, and the choke input filter will drop the B+ by 30% or so and give the tubes a little breathing space.

And then as Tom has suggested, you can up the running current into (near) Class A for a further sonic increase.

Their OPTs are more than OK - so it should end up sounding pretty good - and WAY better than it did!
