my 832 pp amp lives.....
no global negative feedback...
plate B+ is a bit high at 405 volts, screen at 180 volts...
a slight red plate after 30 minutes so i am going to lose some plate B+
i reckon, about 9 watts per plate ought to do it...
how is the sound? i like it.... ;)
this amp comes with a phono stage built in....







in all my builds i implement a central ground point

this my interpretation of how a 6550 amp is built.
pentode operation with G2 regulation, and big OPT's....



phono stage built in.....


big filter choke, and generous filter caps makes a very stiff psu..

from 6AV5 to KT88....this will be the final configuration for this amp....triode mode of course,
with the KT88, the power traffo and OPT are best utilized...
with the 6AV5 hindi man lang uminit yung power traffo... ;)
pwedeng pwede sa AN's nyo..... >:D
