Browse the content of the threads in new Window  Thread: 7788 tube mic pre design in Analog Playback  38 Replies 
Hello Romy, Quite clearly, a high Gm device will have a higher voltage gain than a lower Gm (for pentodes, gain is Gm*Rload if single ended) and this is something we are after in a MC stage. Noise performance is crucial and below I am analyzing a ...

Ah, those figures seem more reasonable - 30pF seemed a bit low. Well, I'm not sure what you  should be on the lookout for - as you say, it's a completely different animal to having a 3uF in line with the S2. What I would suggest, and this isn't ...

Roman, thank you for your thoughts.  However - you decided to use 6E5Pi to drive 6C33C, and the filed of competition in this case might be higher - including those E810F,  E180F, EL84..  or even 12AT7, or even (probably) WE 437.  ...

Browse the content of the threads in new Window  Thread: The 6E5P tube data. in Melquiades Amplifier  44 Replies 
In my post above I have mention that Srajan is in a way a brainless parrot that repeats the heard and has no ability of desire to understand what was the noise about. His comments that 6E5P and E810F are “close electrical” is a good indication how it...

Hi Romy,I think you may be struggling to get 10-12db of gain out of a spud amp (the term is a play on "one tuber").... May just about get it with 6C45.... remember you will be stepping down something like 12 to 18:1 on the OPT.best case: 10db require...
