Single Ended Triodes (SETs), the ultimate tube lovers dream.

RE: What tubes to use with this Interstage Transformers?

"With impedance transformation occurred is 1:16, the drive voltage is very large on the Secondary with reduced AC current. But the Grid usually don't need a lot of of AC current unless I want to get into A2 or modulate into C."

The reactance of the Miller capacitance of the output tube will appear 16 times smaller to the driver tube and it will take current from the driver tube to drive that.

16 times as much current vs. a 1:1 IT.
