finally picked up an oversized Bogner 2x12 to complement my shiva
retubed her today with mullards and holy frak.. i am in heaven..
i've had the amp about 3 yrs and it sees medium use at medium volume and the power tubes were SHOT!!. there was crap rattling around in them when i pulled them out.. If you have a Shiva. the power tubes run at EXTREME PLATE VOLTAGES.. you really do need to retube more often that you would think is "normal".
i won't wait as long next time.. i've been feeling like the amp was responding weird for 6-8 months.. now i know why!
