The 220 ohm value you are/were using is good for this. 10W anode dissipation is 83%. Nothing wrong with that, and good tubes will last a long time. This is less dissipation than many other amps like the VOX AC15.

I agree with Jack. It's fine where it is. It's also less than a lot of earlier 18 watter builds. I'm typically at 85% on that calculator, and I like the way it sounds.

Thanks,
Josh
