The basically the same tubes. The 6E5P has own unit pins layout with heaters connected across the tube – very moronic in my view and it does not allow twisting the AC filament wires to the very end. The 6E6P has a common pins layout that most of west...

[quote user="Johann"]Hi Romy,i want to use the 6E6P-DR (triode mode) as driver in my tube 45 amp.I use a D3A (triode mode) with Anode choke at 180V, 12mA. Grid 2 is connected via 50 Ohm resistor to anode. Grid 3 (pin 8) is connected to cathode.Th...

I think it should be somewhere posted for my and perhaps for others future references. Here is the setting for testing Melquiades' single-stage tubes on Hickok 580/580A tube testers. To test the tube as a driver for a full Milq (two stages) set ...

Sorry, with me apparent alzheimer-inspired progressing dyslexia…. I’m keep confusing whatever is possible to confuse. What I meant to say was the 6E5P vs. 6E6P. The last one you have in DR version. They are essentially the same tubes with different p...

Romy,
I assume you plan to use one of these as the driver tube. Do you distinguish any difference in the sound between the two tubes? I am curious as I have been looking over a big pile of them and they respond quite differently regarding vibrat...

Hi Romy,thank you for your answer. On weekend i will rebuild my amp for the 6E6P-DR. You are right, the tube datas shows that pin 8 is a screen. On D3A pin 8 is Grid 3 connected to screen.I will try it with pin 8 lifted and connected to ground. I hav...

Anyhow, here is what I think I would do if I use the Alnic’s Preamp. Get rich the 7721 and 7788 and to put in there my 6E6P-DR in triode mode. The tube has very same pins and a full equivalent. Increase the plate voltag...

[quote user="montepilot"]How would modifying preamp affect sonic character other than just providing more gain. What's the advantage? Once such a modification is made are you restricted to using the 6E6P-DR tube only? Will it change the sound o...

[quote user="N-set"]BTW, how stable 6E5P is? I'm asking as I was contemplating biasing the output by the voltage drop on 6E5P's plate choke (DCR is say around 1k),with only some minimal autobias on the output. The drawback is that any drift in th...

Those damn Russkies always threw surprises. Using in Melq the Russian-made tubes, probably very few the most remarkable tubes they ever made, the life defiantly threw some hi-fi astonishments.
The people who follow my saga with Melq know that I do n...

Ok, here's some calibrated sweeps. I ran the tetrodes in triode mode, with G2 strapped to plate through a 100 ohm resistor. First up is the western 6e6p.[img]http://www.hagtech.com/blog/images/6e6p.jpg[/img]I then built an adapter card th...

[quote user="drdna"]As I had been looking at all these tubes I began to also inspect their interior construction. This will amuse you: one thing I would do is to hold the tube right up to my ear so the glass would be touching and thus mostly damped. ...

I was playing lately with the Single-stage Melq and the DHT amp driving MF channel. It turned out that the Sun Audio VT-2A3 was very simple kit and it 2-3 hours to make it working. There is a lot in this kit that I do not like and some revisions will...

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.
