There is no fighting in our area, but we thank you all for your support and sympathy.
I have made a similar scheme of fuses on lamps, but we still need to redraw the scheme. After a while I will share the scheme - you can use any pentodes of low power

Hi Vitallka,

It's good to read that you're out limits of the most conflicting areas in your country. I hope that this nightmare ceases soon and the normal life can be reached again.

Regarding your design: perhaps many others dual tubes can be adapted to this same topology. EG.: ECF80, ECF801; 9A8; 6U8; 6CG8, etc.

Several types of triode/pentode manufactured for TV application are waiting an opportunity to bring out distorted sounds for us 8)

Cheers,
Jose

Vitallka,
Those are impressive tones. Has a really nice "gurgle" to the tone (if that makes sense). Are there tone controls on the "tube SE" amplifier that you are using to achieve the balance?
Best wishes to you and your people!
