Re: Dynaco ST-70 rectification question

Posted by John EH on November 10, 2002 at 15:23:39:
My recommendation would be to buy a plug in diode rectifier and give it a try. They can be had for about $10 or you can make one yourself for the cost of two diodes.
Your B+ will shoot up a bit and you'll hit max voltage very quickly unlike with a tube rectifier. I tried it and really, really, really didn't like it.
