After a regular cleaning of RCA input sockets, IEC plug receptacle, tube sockets, tube pins, adapter pins, headphone socket, volume shaft, WA3 exclaims: “High-Z ‘phones, bring ‘em on !”

Such a handsome amp!

Input tubes are on adapters? What are those tubes?

I got nowhere rolling 6922s/6DJ8s (frustrating)

The tubes are Brimar CV455 KB/FB (Footscray: 1956), a 12AT7 type. It is one of my favourites in the 12AT7 group. The adapters are 12A#7 —> E88CC from Pulse Tube Store (India). PTS makes the adapters that are on the Tubemonger website. One can buy directly from PTS.

The E188CC / CV4108 7308 is wonderful (to my ear). --> Here

"This 1960s Halo Getter Mullard E188CC variant is more desirable than the dimple disk getter tubes from the 70s. In our experience, these are probably the best E188CC/CV4108/7308 type tube made by Mullard."

I love pictures of big flatsceen TVs. Here's mine, an LG OLED.

The room is large, which makes the screen look smaller than the 77" it really is (pardon the lazy picture-taking):

wow you really have a big room. I can't imagine 77" in my room.
