Hey, Myles. It`s me Doc. Hope you remember me.
I talked with the folks at VHT, and it seemed to
be too much trouble to deal with the whole switch thing from KT-88`s/6550`s to EL-34`s with my 2902.
So I ended up trading it in on a new 2502. It`s fifty watts a side, has a class A and class A/B mode, plus can run either EL-34`s or 6L6`s. It came with Svet EL34`s. I A/B`d the two amps and found the 2502 to have just the right amount of give to it, and not so stiff like the 2902 could be. I also switched because there are so many more tube options with this amp. A set of Genalex KT-88`s would have cost me a fortune with the other amp. This amp was cheaper than those tubes would have been. I can also turn it up without peeling the paint off the walls. I would like to know what tube options you might suggest. Now that I have all these choices;I might have shot myself in the foot(lol).
I know you`ve been saying a lot of good things about the GT/GE NVM 6L6`s. I wonder what tonal changes I would hear going from Svet EL-34`s to GT/GE NVM 6L6`s. Anyways, I`m bouncing off the walls loving this new amp and choices. BTW,The class A mode is particuarly sweeet. I`d sure appreciate any suggestions you may have.
Thanks for your help as always.
