Mick	Re: 35 watts cathode bias 6L6 5E3? Great info Bruce, thanks! Your point about the output transformer size, is that why a Princeton Reverb is only rated at 12W and a Deluxe Reverb is rated at 22W seeing that both sport 6V6's, are fixed biased, and have plate voltages of around 420V? Not sure if the power transformer is smaller too, I guess that would be another limiting factor. Thanks again. Mick
