Home Tubes Asylum

Questions about tubes and gear that glows. FAQ

Nothing close to mu=20, plenty of mu=8

Plenty of choice around mu=8. 26, 4P1L, 2P29L, 47, 10Y, 112A, 01A etc.

I would definitely use filament bias with Rod Coleman V9 regs. The easiest above is 2P29L which should give you a worthwhile improvement.

If you need more gain stick a step-up transformer in front of it. I use a Hammond 1140-LN-C in 1:4. That solves the gain problem with DHTs.
