Which one do you prefer. Squishy, high end roll-off, compressed and sustaining (cathode) as in this amp:
Reeves Amps - Custom 30 - YouTube Reeves Amps - Custom 30 - YouTube
or the same version but fixed bias (louder, more dynamic, brighter, more aggresive...

Think of the difference between a cathode biased tweed Deluxe....
It's producing less power.
Splat - What's the difference it was fixed bias.
I like to run two amps: one fixed, one cathode biased.
I like both.

Hi,
I have built a fender champ 5f1, I am fine tuning it and currently looking at the filament wiring. I have read on another forum that I can connect the filament CT to pin 8 on the 6v6, is this true? I don't understand how that can work.
If anyone can...

But as soon as the amp moves cathode bias with 2 x 600 ohms plus 2 x 47uF.
Just like with fixed bias or individually bypassed Rk

I've been thinking about buying an old set of Mc mono blocks. Can anyone tell me if the older Mc amps are self-biasing? Or, when did Mc begin building in that feature? I would love an old pair of MC30's but I'm not sure I have the patience or expertise...

You can have.
The Heritage B15 has a switch to select either bias type.
Fixed bias pops up the wattage 5w Prior to your model, the earlier B-15's were cathode biased out of the fixed bias amps.
