Are you talking about the amp that Ceriatone makes.?
It runs either One GZ34 or Two 5V4.

Thanks for the reply.
                              Yes i am talking about the Ceriatone DC30.

What is the difference of having One GZ34 or Two 5V4????

Can you choose either One GZ34 or Two 5V4????

Yeah, take your pick,  look at the layout in my previous post.
I am not familiar with the 5V4, but I imagine the one tube cannot keep up with the demands of the PS.
Like in a Mesa Boogie....they have a Dual and Triple rectifier. 50 watts has generally been the rule of thumb for rectifier tubes. So in a 150 Watt Mesa, they have 3 rectifier tubes.
