1930s Magic Marconi balloon PX4 purple logo £ 2500 quartet

Description

The PX4 is a super-power output valve for powerful receivers, capable of driving moving coil and large speakers at full volume.

Type PX4 is a directly heated power triode for the output stage of receivers and amplifiers where a considerable undistorted power output is required with an anode voltage up to 300. For this purpose the PX4 valve has exceptionally good characteristics  and is particularly suitable for operating moving coil speakers at large volume without distortion.

The filament of the PX4 is of the robust oxide coated type and may be heated from A.C. through a suitable step-down transformer

Filament Voltage 4

Filament Current 1.0 amp

Anode Voltage 300

Grid Voltage -42

Anode Current Average 50mA
