What kind of wattmeter are you seeing the PEP output on? That seems like a lot of power from a 300A ?

Still seems high for that amp. Have you ever looked at it on a scope? I have not read the specs on those tubes in a very long time either but I could be wrong about what it should be putting out?

Does it have the 6LF6 tubes or is it an older model? I believe there were three different tube variations over the years & maybe four? Some converted to the 8950's but they cost an arm & a leg now so not very smart. I was thinking 500 to 600 was about the Top of the output for them but again it's been a very long time since I kept up with them.

yes the 6lf6 tubes use a different meter close to 680 like 690 with wm-1 meter

I like the WM-1 meters so well that I own & use Four of them. One is the original with the Black Face. Have a blessed day & God Bless.
