I’ve been running with this HP amplifier for a few weeks now and I have to say I’m delighted with it. I matched a pair of 6e6p-dr on my eTracer and after fiddling with the operating point a bit, I settled for Ia=25mA and Va=180V. Anode voltage will depend on the valve as said before, the Russian valve parameters tend to be all over the place. Anyhow, expect anode voltage to be around 170 to 185V. The beauty of the gyrator PCB is that you can adjust the anode voltage with the trimpot.
