Still another question about biasing tube amps


Is the bias that the manufacturer calls for in a tube amp dictated by the type of tube that the amp using, or is the circuitry of the amp a factor in how many mA the manufacturer says to set the bias at?

Thank you.

I did find a tube data sheet (from Svetlanta) for the EL34 that I can read, and I am thinking that the bias that is read on the MM reflects "plate current, idle"?
