Greetings,
What Ma reading should I get from the power tubes on a mesa Express 5 50?
I am getting 60ma on two different sets which seems high. As well, the volume even in 5 watt mode seems excessive and tone control sensitivity is high. Cant seem to dial in a smooth warm sound where as I've heard my amp sound much better literally hours before where 5 watt was reasonable and everything was smooth, warm and buttery.
Does this sound like somehow the bias is off or sign of some other problem?
I'm at my wits end swapping cables and rolling preamp tubes.
