I have an old 2ch dual recto, recently it started to sound quiet and muddy at a higher volume so i replaced the 2 EL34's i had in it with 2 of the 6L6's that were in it originally, and i swapped out the installed rectifier tube also just for good measure. Problem disappeared, sounded great again (even though I prefer EL34's, I just didnt have any spares).
I am running half the power tubes to make it break up sooner.
For some reason after about an hour of practice this week my amp started to seem like it was not as loud as it was earlier in the evening. It seems like I am losing volume.
I have never had an OT go out before so I dont know what it does when its starting to fail, is there any advice anyone can give me on how to go about troubleshooting, or what kind of problems this could be a symptom of?
Thanks in advance,
