Re: "EF86" sound from 12AX7 tube?
Actually the Top Boost Vox installed later, comes pretty close to the tone of an EF86. (set the Treble and Bass Pots to zero or very low)

VHT Fet Boost
I bought a VHT D-Boost recently, here is my review. Accurate take on the Fet Circuit of a Dumble. Uses a 2N4416A JFet and a LT1054 Voltage Converter. With a Power Supply of -12v I got 22v on top of the Drain Resistor (10k),16,5v at the Drain and 2,7 v at the Source. Lowering the Source Resistor from...

Re: OPT driven reverb into second amp input
I‘ve been doing this for some years now. Add a resistor between the speaker out and the reverb in( 50/100ohm in series) .This isolates the reverb from the amps output impedance. I‘m running 50 w amps at stage volume into the reverb pan feeding a small satellite amp( 5-10w) . Dry/Wet system

Re: Circuit Analysis Jim Kelley Amp
Having 2 Jim Kellys, I can say ,it‘s not a problem with JJ‘s.One has 470v, the other about 460v on the plates.
High Plate Voltages are not so much problematic,High Screen Voltages can be.
These are great amps!
