RE: Now I Need Rectifier Help!

Posted by SETdude on December 29, 2016 at 09:33:38:
Howdy Tom,

I'm using Full Music perforated plate 274A's, a 4 pin version that is no longer produced. I got 5 of them for a great price from a fellow in Chiefland, FL of all places. My amp has a UX4 socket for 5Z3 or 80 rectifiers. Electrically thee 274A is the same as the current perforated plate Full Music 274B. I prefer the 274A my amp, which can use any 5 volt rectifier, to any of the rectifiers I have. I suggested the Preferred Series based on price and reviews.

The Full Music 274B/N/+ draws 4 amps. I have not tried any of the other tubes you listed.
