thanx guys...but john correct me if I'm wrong,isn't a real tube pedal supposed to run at high voltages to give a real tube preamp sound just like driven in a tube amp?
I've made some reseach and found that ibanez tube kings both MIJ and US are running on 12V adaptors,hot chili tubester and real tube overdrives are running on direct AC cables...so I assume they sound better than adaptor ones?
