I did have the Déjà vu feelings about it as I felt that we had this conversation in past. Here we go – it was a year ago.
http://www.goodsoundclub.com/GetPost.aspx?PostID=4291That post has both 6E5P-E and 6E5P datasheets and they are virtually the d...

[quote user="hagtech"] Stepping back a moment, I'm guessing this tube is designed for radar operation. Maybe in an aircraft. The spec sheet definately talks only about pulse mode of operation. Maybe it was a driver for a pulse radar...

[quote user="drdna"] I think this 2A3 must have a specific set-up to sound its best. You have not found it yet. To begin with and familiarize yourself with the sound of it, I suggest sticking with the topology that has been tested by amplifier design...

Yes, decoud, the 6e5p-GM70 is an easy amp but 6e5p is a hell of voltage driver and I do not feel that a single 6e5p will be able to drive GM70 into grid currents. If people use dead speakers and need a lot of power than use the ability of direct hea...

Sorry I'm a little late here, but anyway... here's something that may worth trying. Apologies that I can't provide a schematic at the mo - I can sort this out later if you like. In the meantime, you'll need a pen and napkin to help visualise this:The...

[quote user="Paul S"]Adrian, I agree that SETs generally have issues such as you describe, and moreso the small ones, especially at the frequency extremes, and at saturation, which tends to occur all too soon, IMO. But I have not sourced t...

I got my second version of new power amp up and running, this time using the 6E5P Romy recommended. Output tubes are 2A3. Amazingly, this amp runs at 0.12% distortion at 1W. No feedback anywhere. It is simple two stage amp run...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]Celsius, I think you do not take in your equation the input voltage. If you bias 6E5P with 4.1V then it can pass 4V with no feedback. Since the tube has under normal circumstances 33 times gain then you have 132V RMS from ...

people think you can use 6e5p single stage full range.

Frank Blöhbaum, from Sweden I believe, have designed for Thorens a preamp that I think the first outside of Russia commercial use my 6E5P tube.

Hi to everyoneyears of reading but never subscribe and post to forumI see that Zarathustra circuit and i m very interested on the first SRPP stageCan someone point out how to implement Melq Gas Bias on that SRPP circuit?I would like to implement a li...

Hi ShannonI think that Romy have it already on his pre-assembled Zarathustra on this topic's pictures: http://www.goodsoundclub.com/Forums/ShowPost.aspx?PageIndex=1&postID=4121#4121and also here:on post #8http://www.goodsoundclub.com/Forums/ShowP...

Hi Cat,It seems the 6e5p is driving the transformer directly. I've used various versions of even simple mosfet followers to good effect at the headphone level, but never considered using a speaker level transformer. Did you and Dmitry cons...
|
I still would hesitant to short the scene and anode and it would require a very sever control of the tubes. The problem is that it would be necessary to do not only then they new (it not too difficult to put then before a fast scope and to see if the...

Dima and I spent today quite a time experimenting with different operation of the Single-stage Milq. We drove it from my Fluke 409D with resistor bias, loaded with 12.8:1 into 12R. Playing with bias, voltage and current we tried to find an operation ...
|
I am not the person to speak about the 6E5P but I have messed with hybrids. If you want LF power, I can say I've heard some pretty simple plate amps that "work" at LF. It would be helpful, and it might even be necessary for you to tell more about you...
|
Sorry, with me apparent alzheimer-inspired progressing dyslexia…. I’m keep confusing whatever is possible to confuse. What I meant to say was the 6E5P vs. 6E6P. The last one you have in DR version. They are essentially the same tubes with different p...
|
Hi Romy,The builder regards VR1 more like an "offset to 0" adjuster than a bias control for the 6E5P since its working range is quite narrow. He asked me to know from you if along the 6E5P's lifespan it needs further adjustments at VR1 or if a single...
|
[quote user="ml8"]...but resistor between screen grid and plate, to my hearing, makes sound slightly unnatural, especially in highs.But this may be not true in your case (i didn't try to use this resistor with 6E5P, only with other power tetrodes), s...
|
Now I re-listen all the things the we try to measure. To surmised everything I have to tell that Dima’s way to looks for optimum operation point of the tube (setting balance for voltage vs. current sufficiency) turned out to be very successful as I d...

[quote user="drdna"] Well, and I have a dozen of them sitting here next to my desk while I am building my Milq amp s-l-o-w-l-y so I guess I will discover my audio intelligence level sometime after the New Year.[/quote]
That is so cool that you...

Thanks, the high nominals the have only 630V and they are larger than I would like to have. Does anyone know how those Obbligato sound in PS?

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...

Romy,
I assume you plan to use one of these as the driver tube. Do you distinguish any difference in the sound between the two tubes? I am curious as I have been looking over a big pile of them and they respond quite differently regarding vibrat...

Taras Oleynk aka “ML8” sent me a couple months ago his measurements of different driver line-level tubes including the Melquiades’s diver tubes – the 5E5P. I am posting his data here with his permission, including Taras’ statement that is JUST PRELIM...

Here is a document in Swedish language that describes its authors’ view on 6E5P. Since the author extensively use a park of Russian tubes I presume that he is Russian descent.
