Changing Preamp tubes on a Cronus Magnum?


In an earlier thread, I mentioned getting my Cronus Magnum on Friday. The amp was well broken in when I got it and I have put at least 24 hours on it since receiving it Friday morning.

I want to ripen the midbass/lower midrange a bit and from what I understand, it's the center 12au7 tube that makes the most difference. What would be a quiet tube that will ripen the sound a bit? Thank you.

Call Rogue Audio and speak with either Mark or Nick. Nobody knows tube upgrades for their amps better than they do, and they will happily help you out.
For me, this really worked quite well ..... in the center small tube slot, an RCA NOS 5814 replaced the original Electro-Harmonix 12AU7 gain stage tube.
