But a change of driver to ECC33 and 2 worlds collide.

Expensive driver with cheap power tubes. SQ jump through the roof. May this driver live forever. Smooth and very detail. Rarely does a tube does that.

Congrats @FunctionalDoc on your upcoming OTL amp and sorry Glenn for giving you more work.

One pair of my Svetlana 6h13c has some static noise. So here I'm mixing 2 x Svetlana 6h13c and 2 x RCA 6as7g. Perfect. Quiet. Nothing like quiet tubes and this blend of different power tubes is very nice.

I much prefer using quad 6as7 than a pair. Tone is more full on and impactful.

Drop the noisy tube to the ground will cure it for sure.






























I mean clean the pins. Lol.

I drop the 6h13c on the ground and it bounce up.

It's a holiday - Anzac Day. So a little treat for myself. An all Gec combo. Thanks Glenn for a very lovely sounding amp. The tubes are nothing but this OTL sure makes them. The euphony. It's beyond goosebumps.

You're running a pair of 6080's AND a pair of 6AS7G's at the same time? Didn't know you could do that. I've also ordered some GEC 6080 today and I already have a pair of GEC 6AS7G. The former are not exactly cheap, and the latter are darn expensive these days!

Anzac is Australia and New Zealand Army Corps. They fought in the Battle of Gallipoli in WWI....

and Glenn the national treasure should start a factory building these amps.

Nice. The GEC 6AS7Gs are still my favourite power slightly edging TS 5998 and 6BX7's. I mean it is difficult to point which tubes are really the best on Glenn's OTL amp because I cannot make my Darna sound bad unless the tube is noisy. She sounds good whatever tubes I roll.

Yeah for Australia and its brave soldiers.

The scarcity of the Glenn...adds its its mystique
And yes....an all GEC compliment of tubes = $$$

Spendable cash seems to come easy to you, Matt. More power to ya.

Mate, of course you can mix Gec 6080 with Gec 6as7g. The resultant tone makes me hug myself. Darn expensive these NOS tubes which I got way before I had GOTL. I blew serious $$$ on these tubes.

Go on, buy yourself a GEC B36 from Langrex now.

I got lucky. I was basking and singing and the people love what I sing and started throwing coins into my hat !!!
