In Reply to: Bringing it up with a 5AR4 wont get you there. posted by viridian on May 26, 2022 at 09:06:16:
The slightly easier way is to just plug in something else. a 5Y3 for instance, and some 6V6's or perhaps cheap 6L6's. Goal is not to get full performance, but reach 75% of B+ and deliver some idle current load.
All in all, for a flipper amp, bring it to the point where you can guarantee the transformers is a useful thing.
And heating up an amp with a GZ34 is not too difficult with a variac and volt meter. Recognize the non-linear behaviour and account for it with the variac's knob.
cheers,
