Update
Rewired the Quikie with D-cell negative to pin 5: Don't notice any difference in sound output (but I'm not an expert listener).
Although the Voltages are quite different:
+B=37,1V D-cell R=1,55 L=1,53
D negative to pin 5 (schematic diagram)
Terminal 2= 2,0 4= 2,1
Tube R 1= 3,6 2= 28,3 3= 0 5= 2,0
L 1= 3,6 2= 28,7 3= 0 5= 2,1
D positive to pin 5 (instructions manual)
Terminal 2= 2,7 4= 2,6
Tube R 1= 1,2 2= 25,7 3= 0 5= 2,7
L 1= 1,1 2= 26,2 3= 0 5= 2,6
NOW I'M REALLY CONFUSED
I searched the web for electron tube data sheets and I think I will keep the negative of D cell to pin 5 like Paul Joppa said
Any sugestions? Please
