Quick output trans question
I have a otv30 ac30 style output trans would it be ok to run to 6L6s with this trans?

Re: Quick output trans question
Sounds reasonable to me, assuming that the AC30 transformer will show a 4k primary impedance with the apropriate speaker load, and that you have ~400V on the plates.

Well I contacted weber and he said that I can use this power trans for a dumble two rock build. Do know how much would be on the plates.

Re: Quick output trans question
If the voltage spec on the drawing is at 150 mA load (like it says), then that would be correct for that load using a ss rectifier . Operating at that voltage and 4k Z would put the max plate dissipation along the class B load line at ~190% (assuming 30W max)... Might still be okay, but I think it's on the edge.
