It is pitty.  Half of the 6C33C could be not used properly - if there will be 3 additional contacts for another triode.  Then you could preserve the second triode, not applying any voltage between plate and cathode. What you do - you use on...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"] I do not really believe in the ultimate ability of SET amplifiers to drive loudspeakers, at least any loudspeakers. [/quote]Well - I've heard a couple of such amplifiers, made by Mr.Juri Makarov.  They did have more o...

I have read once again the explanation of the Melq's project and find 2 interesting things:- load for full range amp should be 1200 Ohm - that is very good for the tube and provides good damping,- capacitors in case of LF channel - 20000 uF (!). The ...

Roman,  the reformation of capacitors is an unswer in many cases.  Those, who use BG - have to spend approximatly the same time to bring the system to the proper sound, but your mind is not SO corrupted.  You use relatively big tanks o...

Vp = 240v, Vg = -90v, Ip = 165 ma, RL=1k5,  10W, H2 = 6.9%, H3=1%, H4=0.2%   I used it with cathode bias (used 50w resitor, backed by 10x200uF capacitor).  How it sounded - warm and punchy.   I had an amp with F-3 about ...

Roman, thank you for your thoughts.  However - you decided to use 6E5Pi to drive 6C33C, and the filed of competition in this case might be higher - including those E810F,  E180F, EL84..  or even 12AT7, or even (probably) WE 437.  ...

I used 6c33c at about 250V Vp, -100 Vg and it was good.  Another important point for sound of tubes - the filament. I find out, that the sound at 6,0-6,1 V filament is preferable to the one at 6,3V. I simply add a series resitor for each socket....
