Thanks for the clarification guys. Though I not a complete newbie to tubes, I don't spend much time rolling unless it sounds bad. FWIW, i ordered (& received) another Genalex Gold Lion GZ34. This is from Jim McShane. The GL made the amp sing while it lived though it was a short life. I'm going to guess that I just got a bad one or that the Cryo treatment was a culprit or both. My previous rectifier lasted 3 yrs or so. Maybe I'll get that from this one. I'll let you know if I don't.
Trelja, did I understand you to indicate that other amps on the market use the same circuit with a double rectifier tube?
