Tube Amp Archive

Great! Thank you so very much!

Thank you so much, I've been trying to find some clear answer on the internet to this question for the last hour, you're the first one do do it yet! Following this logic, the Jensen 35 watt 16ohms should be fine for the job then, right?

Hi, I have a 70s Peavey "The Classic" 4x10 Tube Amp. I got it for free, with no speakers, and I'm currently replacing a blown cap can on it. The amp is 50W, 4 ohm. What wattage/impedance speakers should I get and how should I wire them. I'm new to tube amps, but I'm really eager to learn all that I ...

Thank you so much! The schematic is kinda weird, but I'll give it a shot, and let you all know how it goes

Thanks for the help!

The amp has a tube power section and a solid state pre, if info makes any difference in whether or not that CE would work.

So the higher values won't be a problem?

Hi, I'm new here, and new to tube amps. I'm currently working on a 71 Peavey Classic 100 (A-Series). Peavey has been kind enough to provide me with schematics for my amp, but I'm still having difficulty replacing a burned up capacitor can. The cap can that I need to find a replacement for or somehow...
