Home Tube DIY Asylum

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

Interesting

The only parallel to this that I've seen has been the old Akai/Roberts reel-to-reel tube amp. The EF86 head preamp has its own filament winding and hum pot. The winding is labelled 5.7V, not 6.3V. I've never known why this was done. Noise reduction would make sense, although I'm not sure it would be so beneficial in a line-level stage like the 12BY7.
