I'm converting an old Mono amp into a tube guitar amp.
Originally the amp used two 35C5's in push-pull.
The new amp uses one 6AK6 in single-ended.
Can I use the output transformer in the new amp?
35C5 has plate R = 13K and load R = 2.5K
6AK6 has plate R = 200K and load R = 10K
My guess is that this would be fine if I cut the center tap (2.5K + 2.5K), or I could use a Fender Champ OT (6V6 at 5K).
Is this correct?
Thanks!!
PS
That doesn't sound right at all! I reasoned that 6AQ5 and 6AK6 are similar tubes, with the former equivalent to a 6V6.
