Bio: I am really a novice builder relative to most out there and more as a hobby but I guess you can say a serious hobby. I have built the Ultimate amp starting from a JCM800 with power scaling, extra gain stage, aux power supply, and modified to take any octal power tube based on Kevin's works. This amp is really the latest and greatest for me and galactic grounding from TUT book and am extremely happy with the build. Ultra quiet and sounds awesome the way I like it.
Country:
I've recently finished building a 20W jcm800 style build with two el84's. I've been contemplating on adding seperate bias pots via Kevin's bias kit. However is it worth biasing these tubes? Most el84s I've seen are cathode biased.
