I did have the Déjà vu feelings about it as I felt that we had this conversation in past. Here we go – it was a year ago. http://www.goodsoundclub.com/GetPost.aspx?PostID=4291That post has both 6E5P-E and 6E5P datasheets and they are virtually the d...

Yes, decoud, the 6e5p-GM70 is an easy amp but 6e5p is a hell of voltage driver and I do not feel that a single 6e5p will be able to drive GM70 into grid currents.  If people use dead speakers and need a lot of power than use the ability of direct hea...

I got my second version of new power amp up and running, this time using the 6E5P Romy recommended.  Output tubes are 2A3.  Amazingly, this amp runs at 0.12% distortion at 1W.  No feedback anywhere.  It is simple two stage amp run...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]Celsius, I think you do not take in your equation the input voltage. If you bias 6E5P with 4.1V then it can pass 4V with no feedback.  Since the tube has under normal circumstances 33 times gain then you have 132V RMS from ...
