Just my opinion, but I don't think 6v6s would be good for a first-time project.

You will make a lot of mistakes on your first amp, and 6v6s are not tolerant of mistakes! Be prepared to buy a lot of them.

Hi BbbyBld,
Respectfully, I must disagree with you. This is a great first amp and beats the heck of of messing up a multi KT-88 unit putting up a couple hundred watts.

Besides, sparks and smoke are addictive when you survive! (kidding)

With a first project, have someone else check over your connections. Power up with a light bulb in series with the amp power.

Default SORRY

Nightwalker...

sorry about that. Must be something I do as a matter of habit -- in private life I am a system engineer/administrator, therefore paranoia is my second name

Just take a peak at my site: www.tubeaudio.8m.com and you will find my home address there.

Sorry again for the inconvenience.

Regards to all,
Aleksandar
