Amp designed by me with some help and suggestions of the Asylum. About 380V on the plates and screens...bla-bla-bla. I'll let you know when I finally get them built. i suspect I'll have trouble making it sound bad.
The tube met a few design requirements. First is reasonable price/availability. Some NOS is OK if there are few enough folks using them or enough of the tube was made in first place. Things for front ends like 6SN7 and some of its cousins are OK. Second is its huge plate diss. rating. It allows reasonable power whilst remaining in Class A. and not this BS about A for first x watts and AB to full power, though that is another rant in progress.
regards,
Douglas
ps. on top of all that, it is a cool looking tube
