Tubes Asylum

Questions about tubes and gear that glows. FAQ

There was once a story about a gent who put 4 Citation II's in parallel, all bridged to drive 8R loads. He described a condition where one amp got quite unhappy when the other three started driving it( perhaps an input signal failure? ).

The pic of the 8 Deuces on a custom rack was pretty cool.
