Tubes Asylum Questions about tubes and gear that glows. FAQ |
|
I am getting my second D70, regretting selling one a few years ago.
Question- there are 4 power tubes, either 6550s or KT 88s. There is a fifth power tube that I think is part of the power supply. Can one use an 88 for power supply and 6550 s for power, or vice versa?
Supposed to arrive today. A terrific amp. Will compare to my MC 275 vi and restored MAC 1500, amp section only. Hey, a classic shoot out in me own home.

- FWIW dept.: that amp is old enough that the power supply is at risk. - Ralph 09:50:54 08/14/24 (0)
