Hi everyone, I'm new here, my name is Juwanto and i want to make a cd buffer using vacuum tube with very low gain because i've already use a preamp, so if i use a cd buffer with med or high gain, my power amp will override or clipping, i have some tubes like 12AX7, 12AU7, 12AT7, 6DJ8 and 6080 but i want to try with 6080 because i think it is sexy using a big tube for preamp, i hope for few suggestion and may i have its schematic? someone please help me, thank you.
The 6080 will be a nice preamp and a winter heater. 😀
Look for the 12b4 thread, low gain and sounds very, very neutral.

Thanks for all, I want to ask for some question, is it possible that the 6080 tube working with low voltage (12V or 24V) ? What was the lower voltage should be and what effect will appear working with low voltage?
Thank for everyone who share with me.

6080 is nice. I've tried this 6080 as a CF after a 6CG7 gain stage.
Yep they get damn hot and require significant heater supplies.
But nice big tubes😀

Aikido linestage with four 6080. Toasty 😀
