Plate fed tone stack..?

How could I convert my 36W TMB to a plate fed tone stack?
Any layouts, Schemos?

Which TMB do you have? What you are describing doing is ultra easy to do. However then you have an extra triode sitting there doing nothing. I bet I could find a use for it.

What it is the purpose? Are you converting the Cathode follower ot a gain stage? Are you replacing a 12ax7 with an EF86?

As was said it is ultra easy, you eliminate the cathode follower and place the connection to the tone stack on the previous gain stage where the 100k meets the Anode (Plate) of the tube. You also need to replace the 500p with 250p to get a similar response.

The CF gives a little more fullness to the overall sound, and sometimes you're better off adjusting the gain of the previous stages.

I want to remove the CF tone stack and used the extra triode as a gain stage to get closer to the 2204's sound

I prsently have richies TMB.

Why not just sacrifice the triode from the Normal channel instead.
