The 12v6's act as a sort of long tail pair themselves, with the CCS in the cathode attempting to force balance. With 'matched' pairs, they are within 1 or 2 ma in both channels.Since I am using a separate transformer for the heater supply, it would be easy to switch the B+ off separately. I wonder if the brief imbalance would still occur as it bleeds though?
Do you expect this is any danger to the speakers, or now that I think about it, the output transformers themselves?
Thanks for your help.
