12k SE OT,
Any suggestions on which tube this would suit
Re: 12k SE OT,
I'm not sure if it will work. You might try half of a 12AU7 or 6SN7 as a SE output. You might look at a SE EL95. Really, operating parameters should be known or estimated. You question in the abstract is too hard to answer with assurance.
Re: 12k SE OT,
Yes. What DC "bias" current is the OT rated for? And unless the OT is 12K/2 ohms, you have more options. If it's 12K/8 ohms, then it's also 6K/4 ohms and 3K/2 ohms.Phil_S wrote:Your question in the abstract is too hard to answer with assurance.

12k at 4 ohms meant to be for a el95 but i,m wondering if theres anything else before i skip themFirestorm wrote:Yes. What DC "bias" current is the OT rated for?

Re: 12k SE OT,
Maybe an SV572 if the OT can deal with the current: idles at something like 60mA at 500V.

Its a unknown due to the complete lack of information available, looks like the skip is beckoningFirestorm wrote:Maybe an SV572 if the OT can deal with the current: idles at something like 60mA at 500V.

A 6V6 will operate there.jestaudio wrote:12k at 4 ohms meant to be for a el95 but i,m wondering if theres anything else before i skip themFirestorm wrote:Yes.
