Can the Almarro A318a drive the HE6's direct from the speaker taps?
here's the specs of the amp.
A318A single-ended triode integrated amplifier
Class of operation: class A, zero feedback, cathode-coupled
Tube complement: 2x6C33C, 1x6SL7, 1x6SN7
Connections: 3 RCA inputs, 4/8-ohm outputs
Frequency response:
Output power: 18wpc
Power consumption: 260w
Thanks!
That's a transformer coupled tube amp optimised for 8 or 4 ohm loads. Not likely to be that happy with the 50ohm HE6.
A 10ohm parallel resistor would bring the load with the HE6 down to around 8 ohms - but of course power delivery to the HE6 will be reduced by the ratio of the resister to the HP, so there is no free lunch.
There will likely be ~3W available at the HP - enough to drive the HE6 well but perhaps not optimally.
Of course if you were in love with the sound of this amp, you might find that carries the day - if buying unheard it might be a bit of a gamble.
