bold w/GZ34 rectifier tubes. my DR runs on 6V6 power tubes so if go to silicon they over heat

Got the JJ 6V6's today. put em in, checked the bias, all fine as long as i dont use silicon rectifier, but the GZ34 rect tubes are better than the 5U4's so thats cool. the 6V6's idle at about 24mA in my dual rec. sounds awesome!!!!!! the tone is more balanced and i do exactly what i want with...
