Try reverse the direction of R66. I found that long ago, not sure why the current phase is reversed.
Edit: in other sim, it shows the direction when you bring the cursor over the components, so please note.
You are right.just reverse the direction of R66.the current phase change to correct.thank you.
has fixed this issue.you are right.my fault.You may want to check the LTSpice manual wrt the current flow convention.
You may want to check the LTSpice manual wrt the current flow convention.
would you please help to double check the EC86 SPICEL model and help to build EC88 SPICE model?
My current EC86 model seems does not work.

It doesn't work because there is still one more "^" in the above line, replaced with "**", should work.
Yeah,replace it and fixed it.thanks.
This model is traced by me using CurveCaptor, Koren8 model, pretty close, maybe you like to use it, there is more than one way to get the model, included also the marker and data file for reference.

May be some formatting issue, try this one: LTSpice tube models
Yes,thanks jazbo8,this model no error fond.it work fine.
I paste the wrong one, this one is working on pc, saved to a file.I tried to use this model,but got an error.please refer to attached screen short.

Hello everyone,
I'm designing a phono stage in LTSpice.
For the input stage I would like to use the EC8010, but I could not find the spice model.
Can anyone share the spice model of this triode?
Thank you very much.
Alberto.
