[sortech]

I recently got a Citation V that I am refurbishing. I noticed a very
strange thing in the bias circuit. some of the bias voltage is applied
to the cathode circuit through the 3.3 ohm cathode resistors. Any Idea
why they did this? I wish to replace these with 10 ohm half watt
resistors for easy measurement and to act as a fuse for the tubes.
Is this a good idea?

ive got one of these, 40watts p/ch rms
uses 7581 or KT66 and 2 6CG7 2 12BY7

if i can remember those resistors are for the
DC balence and AC balence setup.
