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.

I'm planning on adding seperate power tube bias for a fixed bias amp. I have the BMK already. Would it be recommend I get a seperate bias supply (BMX) for a jcm800 50W type amp? In the notes if I read it correctly the power is supplied from Va which is doable. But I'd guess it is much better to have a seperate supply?
