Hi Myles,
I talked to you on the phone today about retubing my Badcat Hotcat. It currently has groove tubes EL34LS and a mix of GT and Ruby 12ax7's. You mentioned GE 6CA7's for the EL34's. How do these compare to Siemans or Svetlana's. Any other suggestions for power tubes. I have another amp which has a tele and GE NOS 12ax7's and tried those in the hotcat in V1 and V2 and smoothed out the tone. Would these be a good choice? There are 4 12ax7's labeled channel 1 2 input gain
channel 2 2nd gain stage
tone selection
phase inverter
It also has a ruby 5ar4 rectifier tube and wanted to also try a 5Y3GT since the amp is suppose to take either tube or a 5U4.
Also any suggestions on where to buy tubes.
I've heard Hi Test has good reputation.
Thanks, Tony
