Is there anything is the 6SN7 family that can't be used in the MPX3?
Originally posted by Habib I've been using all 3 Sylvania VT-231s in my MPX3 for the past couple days now. While the clarity and resolution improved, bass didn't. I would describe the overal sound characteristic as neutral, transparent, and musical. Problem right now is with the Sylvanias, the MPX3 is great for jazz and classical but not so great for hiphop and rock. I am wondering if TS as gain tube will take care of my problem. Just something to make it bring out more of the bass. Then agian the TS are rare and expensive... |

Originally posted by bobjew Just another idea: I'm done tube rolling for now, but I bet there is a combination of three different tubes that would synergize together. The reason is that like eyesight, our two ears probably aren't equal and don't hear alike. I bet it would be spectacular to tube roll for each ear. I don't know if there would be an electronic limitation. |
Originally posted by Carlos3 Yeah, middle and left tubes are the separate right and left channels. Need to be matched tubes. |
