6v6g
« on: November 16, 2014, 08:33:08 am »
Good morning all.  Just recently acquired a pair of marconi 6v6g's and the data sheets that I've seen says 315v for plates and 285v for screens.  That seems very conservative to me,  I wanted to try then in a
 5e3 that has 362v on the plates and 360v on the screens and was looking for advice on whether it would be safe to do so.  Thanks.
Well, you know....sometimes you gotta race.

I would give it a try.
A schematic, layout, and hi-rez pics are very useful for troubleshooting your amp. Don't wait to be asked. JUST DO IT!
