Default 6e5p & 6c41 tube amplifier

hello,
I have decided to build an amplifier SE with a 6e5p as driver and a 6c41 (1/2 6c33) as a power tube.
I already have the tube as well as many athers but i need a schematics already tested or reliable that i can build.
Can someone help me?
thank you

Apoligys for going off topic....
I use 6e5p as an input/driver on my gm70 amp, has it been ok at that bias/ Va? had a feeling max Va was 150ish, mine run at 180v, they are so cheap i wasn't worried running them at 30v over but if they are ok at 270 i'll be able to get more swing out of them:-)

I build on separate chassis so I use whatever power supply can offer about 400mA easily, those 6S41S are thirsty. I have a few power supplies built around a Signal Transformer DU-1/2 that can supply the necessary current easily, but I do not have any schematics to pass on sorry.

You caught me pushing voltages, but the tubes are cheap. I have not had any problems with tube life.

thank you

i try to figure out how to build a power supply, i don't have much space so everything must be on the ampli frame.

May I ask you why you have chosen 6E5P plate choke circuit instead of plain tetrode or triode connection?

6E5P is HF tube, is it possible plate choke parasitic stray capacitance and leakage inductance may lead to instability and oscillation? Its just my guess, please correct if I'm wrong here.

Thanks.

Default Choke is Overloaded

Why are you running 27mA through a 15mA rated choke?
