My Footscray CV4033 triple mica's have arrived!

Daft question time.... Should I peel off the sticker on one of the tubes (pictured below) before using them?

Heck yeah! I would leave the stickers, as they are part of the character of the look of the tube. You would have a hell of a time trying to remove it anyway.

 

[M-83]

Heck yeah! Leave the stickers.

Okay nice, I wondered if they'd cause a hazard and/or damage the tube when hot.

I hear ya, and wondered the same thing when I first got a tube with a sticker on it years ago. There are no issues at all, and these tubes don't get blazing hot like some power tubes do.

They were put on in the 50s when they were first manufactured so I wouldn't worry about it.

Well...two songs into using the Footscray & they are already sounding excellent! Already I can see why they have proved popular on this thread

Leave them on…if you take them off, the tubes will sound like GEs……

We Footscrayers hold these truths to be self-evident…
