Re: how do i know when to change a tube
Dude it's very easy. What are the power tubes.....el84's?? el84's? Or 6l6's??
If they are el84's, I'd recommend JJ's. El34's, I would suggest SED's. 6l6's could be SED's or JJ's. Also see the other "pre amp tube" threads, there's all kinds of good stuff in there. Don't worry about killing yourself just changing tubes. Pretty much if you take the chassis out and are fooling around in there is where you have to worry. Just gently grab the tubes and rock them back and forth and slowly pull them out. Line up the new ones and put them back in.
