help designing preamp

[strulon]

hello, my name is fred i just discovered this forum i think it is going to be one of my favorites right now

well, i need your help please

here you can see one ECL86 mu-follower stage preamp schematic

i ve been told it was a very good one
so i ve been badly challenging me trying to make a basic 6 channel preamp with it, putting three of them in serial.
I ve already been able to design the circuit, but some questions remain unsolvable for my pour skills:


for the stereo preamp, the alim transfo characteristic is:
primary 220V
secondary: 2*220V 40mA
1*6.3V 1A

so i need a transfo with 2*220V 120mA and 3*6.3V 1A secondary,
right?
i know i could use a single 6.3V 3A but like this it is easyer to build the circuit

what i would like to know is, if someone can explain to me:

what component values are going to change?
i think R25, and C7-R27-C8 pi filter, but what will be their values?

please help!

thank you

2 threads were talking of this preamp in the past so here's one :

I built it and I'm not disapointed at all. However, I don't understand how you're ending up with 2X220V 120mA and 6.3V 3A.

On mine, I simply use the suggested 2X220 40mA and 6.3V 1A and everything's fine.

You should try to build the preamp as it is on the schematic and try some tune-up once you know it is working fine.

hi elkaid, i m ending up this power because it s a 6 channel preamp i want to build, so three times more power in fact...
but i found answer to my question, it s evil simple...
so i ve ended my circuit design after lot of troubles and now i have to make it build, the difficult thing is to get it to come under a certain surface corresponding to the maximum size my electronician can build the circuit
to be continued..., i ll post some pics by the time
