@pistha All I did was roll the tube in so that it didn`t lean one way or the other.
I wouldn`t worry about it one bit.
Did you listen first to the Sovtek ? Just curious

@scm - thanks. I did listen to the Sovtek. It defintely sounds more refined and there is a little more 'meat on the bone' - so to speak when compared to the SS rectifier. But I am waiting for the tonal richness and the big sound stage that Dan talks about. I hope the vintage tubes will deliver that! |
@scm - I managed to get my hands on a NOS Mullard 5AR4 - boy what a transformational difference it made! Rich tonality, clean sound and wide sound stage. @theflattire - the upgrade is worth the $. |
@pistha It`s amazing that one tube does makes that much difference. Well worth the investment of both upgrades but changing out that Sovtek tube to a vintage type 5AR4 is transformative 👍 |
