Hello!
I bought aristaeus for my HE60 and I like this beautiful amp very much!
here is questions( because I can't connect previous amp owner for a while due to his busy schedule, I can't help asking these questions in this forum)

1. please recommend tube rolling
2. At the back of power supplier, there is X mark on 230v not on 115v
what does it mean; "Don't use 230v" or "made for 230v" ?

Thank you enjoy great music everyone!

1. please recommend tube rolling

For the ECL86, finding quality sets of 4 that test like new is more important than looking for expensive ones. You can try eBay, and there are usually the more of them on European ebay sites. The ECL86 require biasing and you'll need a DC voltmeter capable of at least 600V. For the 12AX7/ECC83, there are a lot of choices. These can usually be rolled without changes.

2. At the back of power supplier, there is X mark on 230v not on 115v

It means it's for 230V, however you wouldn't damage anything accidentally plugging it in to 115V.
