HiFi (Chifi) tube amp build - but my own design.
#74

Tim;
I have known TV repairmen who cursed those 6GH8 tubes, mid to late 60s RCA colour TVs used fistfuls of them, and whenever a CTC 17 would act up they would bring a sleave of 6GH8s with them. Apparently RCA made ones were the worst, but the RCA sets were hard on them to start with. I did not know that these amp kits from the "middle kingdom" used them, they are a triode-pentode which is sort of unusual for a 1st audio/driver tube.
Regards
Arran
