I was reading the Bill Orr handbook and on his section about amplifiers he
says.....A properly designed grounded grid amplifier should produce 2 to 2.5
times the plate dissapation of the tube in output. He did not put any
limitations on the statement as to IMD or anything like that. He did not say
if
the tubes ratings would be surpassed (I am sure they would), but I think what
he was saying is that the tube should continue to make power to 2 to 2.5 times
it's dissapation before it would not make any more power and flatten out.
Upon speaking with an amp "Guru" about this subject, he procalimed that Bill
Orr was a "QUACK". The basis of his claim was that he was never able to
build an amplifier that obtained that kind of results.
What say you? Lou W1QJ
