6V6 to EL34 adaptor socket
You anyone know where I might find something this this. |

If pin 1 is connected to ground just disconnect it and connect is
to pin 8 . Schould work for 6V6 and EL34 after that . Now you just need to check the bias if you plug in EL34 . "scottp" schreef in bericht ... You anyone know where I might find something this this. |

I think they draw roughly twice as much as a 6V6. *IIRC*,6V6's are about .9A for the fils,and EL34's are 1.9A) |

This is a typo,
I meant to ask for a 6V6 to EL84 adaptor socket. Sorry, Scott Ronald wrote: EL34 = 1.5A in my book .

Ah !! EL84 is pretty close to 6V6 so that might work !! But always check the
bias !! Even if you use new 6V6's and the amp uses fixed bias ...... An adaptor can easily be made of a broken octal tube . Remove the base and put a noval socket into this base . Ronald .

Thanks all for the inputs.
Now I have some options. John Templeton wrote: "Ronald" wrote in message ... Ah !! EL84 is pretty close to 6V6 so that might work !! But always check the bias !!
