Gpultec PSU

Does any of you know if the PSU of the GPultec is able to provide enough power for 2 SSRP stages ?
Or is it necessary to increase the size of the caps and power-resistor ?
I'm not that experienced in tube-designs..

Thanks

From strictly practical experience -  yes it can.

But, since you're  drawing more current, the drop resistor value will have to be lower.  We usually find that value by trial and error anyway, so its not a big deal.

Thanks Gustav.

And thanks for the layout.
I'm aiming for a smaller and more flexible footprint, so I think i'll do the PSU and SSRP stages on separate boards 

Best to use two separate drop resistors and two secondary-reservoir electrolytics, to keep crosstalk through supply down..
