Re: my new EC8010 - VT52 amplifier

Hi,

> It is Valvo EC8010

Consider giving the EC8010 a 22K Anode Load resistor and using a 2k2 decoupling resistor.

Also, you should really connect a 22uF Capacitor of good quality between the +B Supply and the virtual cathode point at the junction of the two 50 Ohm Resistors.

I also think going from 47uF to 100uF will only give a very marginal noise improvement.

Finally, a 100K volume control is way too high in value.

Ciao T
