So, here's my question to you guys: would it be possible to use a 6J6 in push pull for a small power amp à lá the subminiature ones we already have available here?
I ask mainly because it's a really common and cheap tube to get where I live, and having that option over the more rare and expensive subminiature ones would be amazing!

I do know it makes for a great phase splitter tube, but considering it can handle 1.5 Watts per triode, one begins to wonder on the possibility of getting some power from the little dude...
And I wouldn't limit it to push pull only. Single ended could be just as viable and an interesting option for the people who prefer that kind of tone.
