Hi all
Please bear with me since I'm new to this
Ok my MPX3 SLAM has the following upgrades:
Power Input adapter for 12Volt tubes
Noble Volume Pot
Cardas Quad-Eutectic Solder
Cardas Copper Litz Wire
Additional RCA Input(2 Total)
Giant 47mf 630VDC Solen Capacitor
Jensen Paper-In-Oil Coupling Capacitors
Blackgate Cathode Capacitors
Solid Silver Audio Circuit
Silver Teflon Power Capacitors
Upgraded cathode gain tube capacitors
Upgraded output capacitors (low ESR)
I've heard that the 2c51 + 2x 6BL7 is a great combination.
SACD Lover said in an earlier post:
6BL7GT/A and 6BX7GT @ HIGH VOLTAGE. Some later MPX3 SLAM SE's
can accept either tube and do not have a high/ low voltage switch because of a "universal bias (my term).
I don't have the SE upgrades. Does that mean I cannot run 6BL7's?
Input appreciated, thanks!
Also, I've heard of people using 6V and 12V wall-wart adapters with
the MPX3. I don't understand how this amp which is rated at 110v
can perform with a 6/12v adapter. Does it switch internally to accept
this voltage?
Still playing major catch-up
