Don't sell your tube amps


Although this was an article in a guitar Magazine, I thought it might interest those who own stereo tube equipment:

Gee,  I seem to remember something about the death of vinyl.  When was that?

Got enough signal, input and output tubes to last 'til I'm 140 years old...should be good

Today I swapped out my "tube like" Pass XA-25 for my Dennis Had SEP (pentode) amp and man...it's just nice to hear the subtle differences. I'll keep these amps forever.

Fortunately my amp uses driver tubes that are not too popular and easy to obtain.  I have about 15 different NOS pairs on deck.   A dozen or so NOS 5r4gy  Rectifiers,  and a back up pair of WE 300b.  

I have 3 sets of tubes for my Quicksilvers so I should be set for a while. 

I also have no plans to sell my 300b or Mid Monos.
