I have a friend that deals in hifi tubes who recently came into a stash of good, strong American rectifiers. His regulars hifi customers arent' interested because the two halves aren't 'balanced', so he asked if anyone I know might be interested. Assorted American brands (mostly Sylvania, if...

Well, bless the little search functions' heart, it did it's best. Anyway, I've just retubed my 400. I plan on using it for bass, so I thought I'd tone down the PI a little bit with some nice JAN 12AT7s, but I can't find a tube diagram anywhere obvious. I've taken a leap and put the 12AT7s in...

I've acquired a Strategy 400 and I know it needs a few new tubes. I got it in poor condition with 8 6L6GC-STR420s, of which 2 were bad, and 4 EL34/6CA7-STR440. I've currently got it loaded up one side with original 6L6, the other with a combination of JJ 6L6/EL34, just for testing purposes...

Howdy. Spent a few hours in the search zone, but didn't find what I was after? Ever tried to search for 'nomad'? Well, since it's somebodies' screen name, you end up with a gazillion threads. Search for 6V6 and you end up with a pile of Blue Angel threads (which I read every one of, just for...

So, are any of the Mesa rackmount power amps good for bass? I guess I'd always feared that they were designed as guitar power, and as such set up to achieve some sort of power amp distortion. I wouldn't want that for bass power. Anyone have any idea what kind of clean output they can...
