Thank you so much! Glad to hear the screen grids are kept at 260, that means the 807 is fine. You say the plate voltage changes on the output tubes as you change rectifiers, is the value consistent or does it vary depending on the output tube? I know just enough about tube amps to be dangerous, sorry if these are stupid questions. I love playing around with different tubes in this amp.

I'm curious about the input tube. If it always gets the same amount of juice which of the recommended tubes are closest to ideal? Don't all three vary by more than just mu?

If I've managed to do this properly this will show the chart that Dennis sent me.

Edit: Can't seem to embed the image. Is there a preferred image poster for this site?
