Re: EL84's 50W?

<robtakethisoutduncan@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> did courageously avow:

I thought someone here said 2 EL84's would have a hard time pusing 25 watts.
Crate has a 50 watt amp with only 2. Thoughts?


Rob

That should be right. I have a 100W Nomad that uses 4 x 6L6s or 4
EL84s depending on how you want to tube it. That would be 25W per
tube. Are you confusing the EL34s with EL84s. I have a 30W amp with
two of those in it.
