Home Tube DIY Asylum

Do It Yourself (DIY) paradise for tube and SET project builders.

Actually, it's just a bunch of hooey

>So, it is thus: 2 EZ-81s, 37 mHY, 30 uF, off to output stage B+, 350 ohm R, 30 uF off to G2, and the rest of the integrated amplifier as R/C/R/C/R/C to various stages.

>Whenever possible, I now AVOID any C input, even a teeinsy weeinsey one like a microfarad or so.

The circuit you describe installs nearly the full 30uF of capacitance as the filter's input element. The 37mH choke is virtually nonexistent as a reactive element at the ripple frequency. You're only fooling yourself with this misconception. Your equipment isn't better for it.
