"5AR4s are straight forward tubes, and though some will disagree, they should not affect the sound"
Agreed. I don't think i've ever heard a difference in sound between rectifiers ( in amps ) except for maybe the Mazda 5Y3GT in my SE84C. i have a tube phono pre-amp, that only takes 12AX7's. so YMMV

I was just looking for the "why" does it change the sound. - Tre' 16:36:11 10/05/24 (3)

impedance follows frequency so either run to {or from} there... - Cleantimestream 04:11:39 11/03/24 (0)
