When changing tubes turn everything off.I never heard of a tube with paper on it thats not good.Some of the best sounding tubes(6922) are Amperex.
Rolling pre tubes question
Hi all,
A few questions from a novice tube roller. I have a Manley Stingray II and have been playing around with the pre tubes.
1. Should amp be turned all the way off, or is stand by OK when changing tubes ?
2. Tubes that have paper labels glued on them ( Brimar CV 4033 ) OK ?
3. Can input tubes ( 12 at7's or the Brimar CV 4033's ) be substituted for the driver tubes...6414's ? I have read that 6414 can be substituted for 12 at7's but what about visa verse ?
I have use the Brimar CV 4033 in the 12 at7 input spot and enjoy the sound, so was wondering about it as a driver ?
4. What tube is more impact on the sound , input or driver ?
5. Ideas for rolling the 6414 as i do not see many around ?
Thank you. Mike
