Noise and hum are minimized by the use of double - wound, helical heaters, and a new base layout which keeps heater leads well away from the grid leads. Low microphonism, high mechanical strength, and reli- ability are assured by a short, rugged cage which provides sturdy support for the tube electrodes. New base arrangement also simplifies stereo layouts. The accom- panying diagram shows how the basing arrangement facili- tates the design of an amplifier using the two triode units for isolated stereo channels.
