Ha Ha!!! There's my mate! I agree completey. What you suggest was on my list of to do's. I'll consult with you when I'm ready to begin I have to tell you...I love this pre-amp. It was a really odd duck to me at first, but now.....two seperate push-pull class A triodes on the same chassis, split for you convienence, push-pull pentodes, super triode. What more could one ask for? Talk about easy experimentation! I patched in the MkIV reverb amp with some pots. Viola! Instant deep, rich reverb!

IMHO you'll be better off pushing bias substantially zerowards (ie class A) and then a diddly notch onto heavy compression. Distortion plus grind, dirt and all that stuff Laurens was so ashamed of will stand out at lower volume levels :-) Cheerio t402 --- In hammond_zone@y..., "Randall Bush" <raul_de_jalapeno@h...> wrote: (snip) The input of the second > preamp section is a 6J7 pentode connected in super triode configuration.
