Re: Great job

Hi ,
What a load of claptrap , I don't know why Dave bothers . All this cos someone won't admit they're wrong (as per usual) about a totally different subject

'I am curious as to where in a tube amp, using indirectly heated tubes, one should consider a common mode choke.'

Try using them on heaters , noise can couple capacitively to the cathode . I've had varying results with CM chokes and DHT filaments . Next project will use a slightly different topology , I'll be implenting balanced power via an isolating transformer rather than placing a CM choke on the filament tx primary . What do you think ?

cheers
