F6 Power

[steppenwolf2]

hello,
i have order at diy store all what i could buy there to building the f6. i look at the guide 6l6 but for me isn't 100% what i should need for parts between toroid and power supply.

one guy from netherland wrote.
You need rectifiers between toroid and power supply, also simple protection circuit.
okay, but what is it excatly and where can i see it in the guide from 6L6?


Other problem is, my english isn't good enough to understand all 🙁



Thanks for our help.

Steppen , it's not your English the problem , you need to have a minimum understanding of electricity to build an amplifier , you first have to learn about , otherwise you will struggle a LOT each and every steps

Hi steppenwolf2,


I just sent you a PM.

New inquiry: Does the F6 need a 300VA or 400VA transformer (or other?) Antek makes both. I have purchased two 200VA toroids to make monoblocks assuming they are a good size. But what does an F6 need for a stereo amp? Any comments on proper size for mono or stereo versions? How much current does an F6 channel consume?

 

[Dennis Hui]

I used an AS-3218. Standard current draw about 1.3A per channel, though you
can adjust to taste. 🙂

 

[audiosteve]

Thanks Dennis! 1.3A on the mains? at most, at idle? Can you please add more qualifying info to this reply if you can? Thanks.
