Well,I just pulled a BONE HEAD move and cooked a tube. I just ordered another pair. I turned the system off to pull a tube for measurements, and like an idiot,instead of just leaving the room for a few minutes, I put said tube back in a little too quickly,and turned everything back on. I am not very happy with myself.
Linlai E 6sn7 tubes
I just placed an order for a pair of these for my Aric Audio Motherlode II. I’ve been chatting with a fellow that runs the E 6sn7 in his Don Sachs pre. He loves them, He says they make his NOS tubes sound thin and lifeless.
It will be a couple weeks until I receive them,and I was curious if anyone out in Agon land has tried these,and what are your impressions?
Thanks in advance,
Ray

Wait a sec. @rocray You pulled the tube, fine. What was the problem, installing it again while the amp was hot? |
I’m assuming that was the issue. When I turned the pre back on, I heard a pop,and shut it down. Waited a few minutes,turned it back on,an low volume on the right channel. Shut it down,waited a few minutes,switched tubes. Low volume moved to the left channel. Waited again,pulled the Linlai’s out,swapped in the Psvanes, all is well. I feel like a knucklehead. |
