RE: resistors value

Posted by Tubenstein on March 12, 2017 at 10:47:34:

I think part of the reason not putting CCS in the second stage because of the costs of production. The SFL-2 almost a bargain price back in the 90s' for what they offered back in the day.

Personal I like those positions with Vishay naked resistors other than CCS.

Don't you think this is a wise idea to have carbon comp resistors for positions like LR27, LR30, LR37, and LR38?

We actually have tried 2 x 54.8K 2W in parallel for the positions of LR35 and LR36 that required 27.4K 3W with great result in my friend's unit. Actually the unit should gain a certain degree of sonic benefit if having wirewound resistor for the remaining positions.

I've seen the circuit diagram in the past and the designer build the supply for the grid supply (145v) is not quite the same level as the other 2 stages.......Any thoughts??
