good morning
gentlemen, I have to power 10 6N16b tube for a project that I will share as soon as I will end it.
First doubt :
the HT is 200VDC , and since There's a lot of cathode follower and some of those DC coupled, Have I to elevate the filament even if max VgK in 6N16B are 150 V and I have biased each of those approx -3V ( 100V ) ? actualy little less -2.88
Second doubt :
each tube eat 400mA -/+ 10% at 6.3V, so for power those in parallel this mean to use 4 Amps and a tons of UF, more over the kick of the inrusch current will be tremendous
If I power the filament in series with a current regulation instead, may I gain somethig ? maby using two regulators to power 5 tubes each..
third one :
If I'll go for series ipotesi, have I to elevate the filament anyway ?
