I received my two monsters and I'm not sure what to think about them.
It looks like a quality German construction with few low-end components but I can't find an equivalent diagram based on final 845 = 6j5 / GU50 / 845.
for the moment I found the two 6j5 cooked and pumped.
they are on order, I will see for the future.
 
Frequenzgang bis 28KHz... that's not very wide, even at 0dB. 845 are nice bottles but must be paired with nice outputs to shine. Mend it and take some FR measurements, see how HF behaves at 28-100KHz. Draw up your own schematic, there are only few parts in ;)
