Hello everyone,
My .50 Calibre is extremely noisey on both channels and I have been advised to change the power amp tubes. The operating instructions call for Mesa/Boogie 6L6GC tubes. I have found some on ebay but they are listed as "rectifier" tubes. Is this the tube I am looking for? What is the difference between a rectifier and reguar tube (if any)? I was also considering picking up a couple of Mesa/Boogie 12AX7s but again they are listed as "rectifier" tubes so I am not sure if they are what I need. Any advice would be appreciated.
Thanks
