hi guys. i want to build a small 2x6L6 combo, cathode bias, fender style preamp + reverb, no tremolo, no NFB , no normal channel.
like a vibroverb, but with cathode bias.
i have a lot of spare parts from other builds, like a PT of 300-0-300 and 2 JJ6L6GC.
i wanna go for a couple of diodes as rectifier, since i don't wanna spend for a tube and i could use some space.
i need help to calculate the value of the bias resistor, but i think that a 270Ω 10w resistor, like the 5E5, is a good start.
do i have to choose another resistor because of the bigger absorption of the 6l6gc?
i have found a cheap vibrolux OT, rated 35w. i think it's a good option, right?
i need help to choose a choke. i'd love a choke, and a light one. i can buy an Hammond 125x one, but i'm not sure which.
it would be awesome if i could use a 400v one, because they are cheaper, smaller and lighter. i would expect 420v with no load,
but i have no idea about what real voltage i would see. the 6L6gc are not mine, i never used the big bottles.
any help is appreciated. thanks guys
