I recently retubed my LSC with new EL84's (using Yellow Jackets) and 6V6's (I've used this config before).
After a couple of minutes of playing, I started to smell something burning so I immediately turned off the amp. The tubes were hotter than normal.
I couldn't see smoke and the tubes look like they are still new but I'm afraid to turn the amp on again until I get some feedback about the possible problem.
I had the amp set at 50 watts, was using the 4 ohm speaker jack and had the bias switch set to EL34. I was NOT running the amp very loud.
Please advise.
