Thanks.
Most of amplifier only use one transformer, the secondary's Voltage can
dip about 15- 20% when full load.
If it did not regulated,the bias Voltage will chage. I think the ruglated
power supply is necessary unless you use anlther small Xformer for G1 power
supply.
I notice that R105 much more than RV102, so It is regulated power supply,
but not 100% full regulated power supply.Is that right?

PS, I have noticed some Big tube(4CX10000D) Class AB1 amplifier with G1
regulated power supply but can handle reverse G1 current and with reverse
G1 currend meter.

Good morning and evening!
Here is grid bias power supply in G3SEK's control board
:http://www.zmdz.com/bbs/incomefiles/20144/1912574624747.JPG
I do not understand how it works. I think it is not a regulated
power
supply. If it work, should be modify as red line marked and replace
NTW5142E
by TL431(adjustable) or TL431 series a zener(higher volt)

There is no need for active grid-bias regulation because the circuit is
designed for class AB1 operation. This means that the grid current is
always zero (or very close) so the grid bias supply never has to handle
any significant variation in load current.
Class AB1 operation condition is strictly enforced by the overdrive
protection circuit. The first small peak of unwanted grid current (100uA
for only a few milliseconds) will produce full ALC output, and a grid
current of about 3mA will trigger a complete shutdown.
For all of those reasons, the existing zener-stabilized bias supply
meets the necessary requirements.
