RE: 6CB5A - good power in triode mode

6CB5A. SE triode connected finals @ 23W anode in 2 stage cap coupled circuits.

I recall the tube was sort of hard to drive and needed a preamp in front of it.

Also tried low power SE parallel feed finals.

Only NOS tubes will be available, if that matters. The top cap can be annoying as well.

As commented below, the associated circuitry with have some influence on final outcomes.
