That is totally subjective.
Personally, I think the Ruby 6L6 and their EL34BSTR are amazing tubes. These are exclusive Ruby designs off their own tooling. Some people think they are rebranded or repackaged but this is not the case.
The Ruby EL34BSTR is perhaps my personal favorite 25 watt EL34 tube. [/QB]
Myles,
Glad to hear you dig the Ruby 6L6's as thats what my Randall RM50 has and it sounds great!
I am curious to try the self biasing feature on the back of the amp and my three part question is this.
First..would trying the Ruby EL34BSTR give me enough power at bedroom levels? I get a great sound from all the modules with both the preamp and master levels at about 2-3 with the 6L6's.
Second..what can I expect sonically in comparison to the 6L6's
Third..the manual says to set the bias (for the EL34's) between 30mV & 38mV ,,,what would you recommend? What happens from one end of that to the other?
Ok,, that maybe 4 questions
Thanks in advance Myles!!
