Maybe I should specify more. What could I use to have, say, 100-200W
from a push-pull pair of tubes? I genuinely want them to be
functional, but at the same time look cool (I know, typical noobish
thinking...) - glowing blue and such.
211, 811, 572B for triodes, several tetrodes or pentodes like 4-65A,
4E27, 813, et al.
The 811 is cheap but it is intended as a zero bias RF tube with a mu
(amplification factor) of 160. The Altec 1570B ran a pair for 150 or
so watts. Several other PA amps too. Horrid sound.
211, 845 are highish dollar. WE 212, an elephant penis of a tube,
