Guys - Rogue amps have the bias meter built in lol. He doesn’t need to run out for a multimeter.
can you please help me around how to use my first tube amp?
Hi, I picked up on a whim an older tube amp, first I have ever had that is non automatic biasing and outside of that really no nothing about tube amps
Its a used 10 year old or so Rogue Audio Atlas Magnum power amp with KT 120 power tubes
the pre amp/dac will be RME adi-2 and speakers are Sonus Faber Lumina V's (4ohm)
I was thinking I would also also try it without preamp from a bluesound node
I believe the stock setting is 8ohm on the amp and you need to crack the lid to adjust down to 4
nervous about installing and biasing the tubes
can anybody advise what happens if I run the amp without the tubes being biased correctly?
also, can I run this from the 8ohm default so I dont have to open it up?
finally, how do I know when i need new power tubes and pre tubes?
any other advice will be appreciated
