At the risk of being called pedantic . . . the correct designation is 6F4P. :wink:

Here is a vintage OZ Amp which used 6DX8 as Reverb Drive/Recovery. It was obviously a higher impedance tank but for what its worth this is the trace I did and provided to Roly to put up on his OZ Amps webpages.

Belated thanks for this. I must have missed the email. And thanks Darryl for the correction. My dyslexia kicking in.

i just finish building a DoubleSix by ampmaker but i bought all the parts
thru other sources and added another channel.
Now this is my first real tube amp build so i have some questions.
I still need to wire the output transformer but not sure what wires go where.
I bought a Edcor GXSE15-8-2.5k it has 3 input wires blue=plate - white/blue=screen and red=B+. this is a single ended transformer the scrematic shows 2 input wires i have 3. help with what wires go where.
thanks
