you'll have to find a tech in your area. The replacements are Nichicon XY series film and foil. The originals from manley are metalized film. you can buy the parts from digikey.com https://www.digikey.com/en/products/detail/nichicon/QYX2A474KTP/2117731 It takes 2 min to change the parts, hard part is all the pre-disassembly work first. |
One other thing. I've done a bunch of rolling in my Chinook. The stock Electro Harmonix 6922s are very good. The amp was voiced with them per EveAnna 's tech Chris. Even though I roll tubes like crazy, I do admit that EH 6922s are a quiet tube. They really don't get enough credit. I'm ready to roll after I understand how the machine sounds stock. I try to keep an open mind because I never really know what I will like. I've used inexpensive reissue tubes to great effect, and have found pricey NOS not that great (even when tested and from a great seller). It always depends. If funds are not an option, I'd buy 2 6922s of 3 different makes so you can experiment. |
