How about one for actual AB1 or AB2 operation? The spec that mentions the mfgrs recomended values for typical guitar/audio amplifier operation.

: It is typically quoted as 2000 volts (or more) for both : the EL34 and the 6L6GC.

In AB1 or AB1 amplifier operation..? Where's the link to that data sheet Phil?

: Very high peak plate voltages *are* experienced in a guitar amp.

ZZZZZZZZZZZzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.....!!!! Oh, you put us to sleep Phil. Since you're having so much fun. We can all say that "very high peak plate voltages *are* experienced in most amplifiers. Oh joy, now we all have some really technical information... but not from you Phil.

: In a Marshall it can reach *5000* volts peak during overdrive !

No where in the original post was a Marshall Amplifier mentioned Phil. Talk about going off topic again.

: In a Music Man it cannot exceed 1500 volts or double the plate supply.
: That is what those HV plate diodes do.

So figure some bitter AH like yourself puts an untested low dollar replacement tube into an amplifier with higher plate voltage. Regardless of the amplifier model (just for you Phil) a tube "glitch event" is not good news. Do you put untested tubes in amplifiers Phil?

: ** Output tubes operate at well over 1000 volts peak in the majority of : guitar amplifiers.
: In a Marshall, or similar amp, peak plate voltage can reach +/- 5000.
: Data sheets for the EL34 give the *plate max voltage* as 2000 volts.

How about any mfgrs data sheet for actual AB1 or AB2 audio amplifier service using the 6L6GC? What's that value you seem to never provide?

: The max **plate supply** is given as 800 volts.
: Which has NOTHING to do with "hi=pot" testing.

High-Pot or Hi-Pot is related to testing tubes (& parts) for breakdown at higher potentials. You drone on about it being bad news to place tested tubes into amplifiers. I guess you're going to overtake Groove Tubes, NDB Electronics or New Sensor as the better tube re-seller very soon. If you're placing untested tubes into amplifiers with just the word of the tube seller, you're just another bad hack Phil. And a bitter one at that... s.


What is _WRONG_ with you people????

There was a time -- and not that long ago -- when this NG was populated adults. While we didn't always agree, we did manage to disagree with at least a modicum of civility. Now you guys are arguing like first-graders, fighting over an Easter egg or a chocolate bar.

In the end, who _GIVES_ a rat's ass about the maximum plate voltage of an EL-34? We're in the middle of a War on Terror. Thousands of people died in 9/11. Thousands more have died since. Hundreds more died in New Orleans. And you think the world is going to revolve around the maximum plate voltage of an EL-34? What _PLANET_ do you people live on?

Certainly not the same one as I.

Get a life. Get out of your chair, walk away from the computer, and do something useful.
