Tube Ideas/Questions Rockerverb Mkii Combo
Posted: Thu Sep 21, 2017 4:30 pm
I've decided to upgrade and experiment with some new tube types, as well as finally try some NOS tubes in my Rockerverb 50 mkii. I am currently decided on using a Sovtek 12AX7LPS for my PI and new production Mullard 12AT7s for my reverb. I'm mostly concerned with the v1 position for the Clean Channel and the v1 and v2 of the Crunch Channel.
The tubes I already have on hand to experiment with are:
ANOS RCA 12AX7A (USA)
NOS JAN GE 5751
NOS Mullard CV4024 (12AT7)
I was thinking of trying the Mullard in v1 of the Clean, NOS JAN GE 5751 in v1 and ANOS RCA 12AX7A in v2 of the Crunch
Thoughts? I do intend to do some experimenting but I also figured that there are people here that might be able to help me as what configs to start with.
***Also, I'm debating switching to KT88s in the power section in lieu of getting another set of EL34s which are in there now. If I do, I'll get it professionally biased and all that.
