Hi all,

Long time lurker, this is my first post.:)

I want to build the Aikido pre-amp, and am looking at using a
Hammond 369AX TX and 6sn7 tubes.

The TX specs for Heater are 6.3v @ 2A, I found specs for 6sn7 putting Heater Current at .6A.

Will it be ok to run the four tubes (AC) off this supply? I realise the
combined amps will be 2.4 but hoping maybe this TX will be ok to
supply the current ?

I would prefer not to have to use a second TX.

Do you think I can get away with this setup ?? :confused:

Cheers
Dave
