Speaking of class C, I have just completed a nostalgia rig using a push-pull
pair of VT-127As (somewhat similar to the 100TL, but looks like a spaceman with
grid and plate pins sticking out the sides).
I've been bench-testing it the last few days with a wimpy power supply.
Surprisingly, I'm up to 500 wattts out with 1300 volts on the plates.
I have several tubes, and have tried a couple of different pairs. In both
instances I've noticed that one tube will have a slightly brighter plate glow
than the other.
I'd like to have the tubes as closely matched as possible.
My question is: Which tube is most likely to be the better, the bright one, or
the cooler one?
