I was actually quite surprised with the dynamic range of this amp, it was great. I want one for myself. Question: who sells a correct alu JTM45 chassis?

What's the B+?

Most reïssues I've seen were way below 400 Volts while a couple of real/old JTM45s were around 450 Volts....

Mine is 452 with a tube.
Signatures have a 255 character limit that I could abuse, but I am not Cecil B. DeMille.

yes, original voltage charts show 440 and 450v. I looked at one original recently that had ca 450v, depending on bias. most originals used the 1k flying resistor, but the RI omitted it, leading to screen voltage exceeding plate voltage

+1
+ different filtering

Is the choke right after the ot-centre-tap or in front? did forget to check that and/but the old schematics are pretty unclear to me regarding that.....
