D'lite-ish 6V6 tone tweak questions.

Fenderman, do you have the configuration Smokebreak suggests without the 100k feeding the pot?

Yes, I do. I feed the 250k pot directly from v2b anode caps.

Something else I'm gonna try...my recent low plate build is just straight OD. I replaced the ratio stuff with a fixed 100K to 150K. But ultimately all that does(as well as the ratio pot's leg to ground) is strap some resistance across the MV pot, and funk up the taper on it. So I'm gonna try 100k off V2b plate straight to a 100k MV and see what happens.

First one I built was a D'lite, and it kinda turned me off, but it turns out I just didn't really care for high plates or the skyliner stack. Now you can pretty easily try all the other variants in that judybox. The OTs are great in those things! Not to mention the fancy pots.
As far as your 100k OD level/ratio pot goes, check this out: you've got 150k going into 100k pot. If that pot is cranked, you have a 150k/100k divider headed to the MV . So, to keep the loading the same, you could use a 250k linear pot and on ~4 it would be exactly the same as you have it now. The added bonus is that you can now "turn it up more", and get closer to rock city;)

Ooh that's much mo-betta. Thank you guys for sharing.
