What model Pilot amp is this?
I am not suer, They were pulled from turntables, i am not sure of the actual model numbers on them.

Ah. That was the hint I needed. Might be an Encore PT1025.I am not suer, They were pulled from turntables, i am not sure of the actual model numbers on them.

There were a few different models. The PT 1010 / 1020 and the PT 1015 / 1025. Probably just minor differences between them all but I've never looked closely.Ah. That was the hint I needed. Might be an Encore PT1025.

What input tube is that?
My most recent flea power build is this breadboard style SE UL EL34:

It uses a SMPS and has no soldered connections. Details here:
Build This Tube Amp With A Screwdriver
So a few years ago I picked up a Switch Mode Power Supply (SMPS) that's designed for tube circuits. It has separate outputs for 6.3v and 12.6v heaters and a 300v output for the B+. But other projects took precedence so it sat on the shelf for a long time. Some folks over at DIYAudio had...www.audiokarma.org
So, I found the ideal opportunity to trade my Luxman SQ-N150 for the LX-380 though I had to drive to Cornwall NY to do it. It's American voltage, has a warrantee and I picked up at Hudson Valley Hi Fi in the above mentioned quaint little town along the Hudson River. The LX-380 is rated at 14 - 20 watts per channel at 1000Khz depending on the speaker load but realistically for full bandwidth 20Hz - 20Khz at 1% distortion its probably about 6 watts per channel. Still more than enough to make my Klipsch Heresy IVs go very loud if I wanted them to! An extremely nice sounding and elegantly crafted component.Luxman Sq-N150, 10 watts per channel, single tap, 6ohms

this is really cool. id luv to see a schematic for this amp--have you posted it in a build thread?I don't think I ever posted a picture of my parallel feed 6V6 amp. I mentioned it earlier in this thread and included a link to another forum. It's just over 3W and uses a 6V6 as the driver with plate to plate feedback. Really nice and open sound and the FR is -3dB at 15Hz and 65kHz at 1W. Now working on a not-so-flea-watt SE amp at about 15W. Similar concept but GU50 and 6p15p tubes.
