[QUOTE="El Sid, post: 880111, member: 18550"] Maybe I should lash out another 80c and have two diodes in series? ;) :ROFLMAO: The GZ34 is a new JJ Electronic (Slov not Sov ;D), so good idea then. I know purists will be horrified at the thought of "sand" in a valve amp but I want to protect that old transformer. Something I've just thought of now is switching noise in the diodes - should I put caps (100nF ceramic high voltage?) across them? If the valve ever fails then as temporary measure I could put in resistors from anodes to cathode as the diodes will then rectify... [/QUOTE]
