Hi Nick,
Can I try this Finemet transformer in your circuit on the start of this thread in place of Sowter 8650? If I can, what are the necessary changes do I need to do?
Here is the link to Finemet at thread #180: http://www.diyaudio.com/forums/twisted- ... rs-18.html
Here are some info about the Finemet transformer.
ESS9018 transformers is made by Mr. Yasuo Suzuki - a "typical†Japanese audiophile. Primary DC resistance is 14 Ohms, and secondary resistance is 16 Ohms, and the turn's ratio is 1+1:1+1. The transformers can be had with black urushi coating that is supposed to dampen against microphony.
Information about FINEMET can be found here http://www.hitachi-metals.co.jp/prod/pr ... -fm9-e.pdf.
Thanks,
Joe

Hi Nick, I need help please... My right channel tube keeps on going (open) bad. I just installed and zero'd the new 6n6p more than a month ago, the right tube turns (open) bad, then I replaced it couple of days ago, after one day of used, it turns bad again. What could be the problem? Is this a bad ...

Mike, Thanks for posting the link. Nick, Actually, I replaced that 1k with 1.8k to reduced the voltage to 170V to match your circuit. The DVB guy is talking about 6n2p, that is what he is using on his board, that board is switchable for 6n6p, 6n2p and 12ax7 with the use of toggle switch. I have the ...

Nick, The supply that I'm using is the Lampizator Board. I used all the parts and same values from your circuit post on the top of first page of this thread and followed your test instructions. I used the 402R 0.1% (can't find 401) cathode resistors. I adjusted the test points to .001V after warm up...
