RE: 6V6 Amp- my design vs drlowmu design

Posted by drlowmu on January 12, 2017 at 06:33:19:

Thanks for the explanation, and I totally appreciate all the thought and care you put into this build.

A+++.

ALL silver wire is not needed, but silver is NICE in critical spots, I use a lot of m22759/11 these days, but I DO use silver in three spots (1) RCA jack to grid of input tube, doubled-up (2) My direct couple, about 19 AWG, tripled-up and (3) off the center tap of my DHT Ef XFR, tripled-up, under 2.5 inches, to the top of the 2A3's Rk resistor.

I hope you get great performance.

In my early DIY years, Bob Fulton mentored me on a P-P-P 6B4G amp, six outputs per channel and it was on eight chassis, weighed about 700 hundred pounds. Wouldn't play the big Fulton speakers at high levels. Now a days, ALTEC VOTT A7-800s and a single JJ 2A3-40 for Finals. Coming up soon, Q1 or Q2 - 2017, monoblock JJ 2A3-40 amps.

Have fun, I am !!
