Tube Rolling MF X-CAN V3

Since Head-Fi.org has been down for 3 plus days now, thought I would ask this here.

I have been unsuccessful in finding out which tubes are in the Musical Fidelity X-CAN V3. Mine is new and I don't wan't to crack the case just yet.

I am wondering if any one has tube rolled their amp with success? A friend recomended a brand, unfortunatly I did not forward the email home and cant remember the tube manufacture.

Any advice is greatly appreciated.

I don't have any experience with the X-CAN but according to this review it uses two 6922 tubes. The specs published with the amp say two ECC82 tubes, are used. Those and the 6922 are the same tube with different designations.

Sfar,

Thank you had to go out to the MF web site and double check both the specs and the manual and no where does it say what tubes they use.

I have now read part of the article will have to finish it later.

Srar, again thank you.

The 6922 is the premium version of the 6DJ8 tube type. E88CC is the European numbering for 6922. Doing a Web search for 6DJ8/6922 will get you more options than you can possibly deal with. It's a very common tube type with prices ranging from $10 into the hundreds.
