VT3b 6SN7 SET-UP: 1/ Each bias potentiometer should be set initially at the most negative end of the range. After 5 minutes warm-up adjust each bias setting to 1.62V+/-0.01V (50mA). 2/ After 20 minutes warm-up with the amplifier 'right side up' supply voltages should be adjusted to within the values shown Re-adjust after a further hour. 3/ Now adjust each bias setting to 2.01V +/-0.01V for 65mA (or to a value corresponding with the intended bias current.) Note: With new tubes, the bias current can be expected to drift significantly for the first 24-48 hours. 4/ Node voltages are given for diagnostic purposes only and will vary with the individual tubes used. +650/+655V
