Any one know whether 6V6s can be used as power tubes in the new Mark V like they could in the Mark IV in Tweed mode?

Agreed re placement in separate rooms but in many small studio environments in NYC this is not possible. The fan is an original issue from 1992 so perhaps there are quieter substitutes. That, with an on/off toggle switch, might be the best bet.

I am concerned about heat. I wonder what is the maximum "safe" temperature. In any event, the amp is not much use to me in the studio without being able to at least turn the fan off. I wonder whether overheating (at whatever temp that occurs) simply reduces tube life or could damage the amp...

The fan is too loud to record with a microphone, so I want to unhook the fan. Looking under the hood, it appears that the fan is attached to the circuit board with two wire, and removal would simply entail touching each contact with a soldering iron to melt the solder. Has any one done this...

I love the tones out of my Triaxis but hate the noise level going into my 2:90. The noise level coming out of the Record Out renders it useless. Any one have a mod to address this. Simple retubing?

Thanks for the warning re the rack depth. Good point. I will mostly use it for recording though

I am considering 4 Yellowjackets with EL-84s on one side and 6L6s on the other so I can mix the sound of each to taste. Any danger in doing this or do I need to replace all tubes with Yellowjackets?
