Re: LND150 as a replacement in Cathodyne PI?
I need some guidance in utilizing the LND150 mosfet as the phase inverter in my cathode biased Harvard style amp. My B+ is around 300v. I love tubes but I am open to experiment as I have a few of these in my parts bin. Here are a couple of them at 350V. I can re-design these for 300V and 220k grid ...

Re: "No More Russian Vacuum Tubes in 2022"
I'm keeping the set. They're just spares anyway. And I found a vendor that has unmatched tubes of the same type for a reasonable price, and bought three on the chance that one will match up well enough. It's not like tight tube matching is actually a requirement when the sound of slightly mismatche...

Re: "No More Russian Vacuum Tubes in 2022"
Welp, I guess that tube reverb build will be on hold for me. I'll play surf in the tub for now.

Re: Stand alone reverb unit with a high impedance tank
The 600 ohm tank was from a different abandoned project and I wanted to see if I could keep it from gathering dust on the shelf of misfit projects. Ideally, it seems the old standby, 6G15 unit with 8 ohm tank is the logical direction. But dang it, part of me says: try something different. While I do...

Definitely looks interesting! I know I have a small stash of those old tv tubes in my man-cave.didit wrote: ↑Fri Dec 10, 2021 5:39 pm Hello --

Re: Stand alone reverb unit with a high impedance tank
Gotcha - cap coupled is the way to go with these Hi Z tanks. Much appreciated!

Stand alone reverb unit with a high impedance tank
Hi, first post although I've been a lurker for a while. I have a MOD 4EB3C1B 600 ohm tank and wanted to know if it's possible to utilize it in a 6g15 circuit? Is there even a 600 ohm transformer available for such a silly idea? Are my only options a transformer less drive setup or obviously getting ...
