In my opinion Emission Lab mesh plates are worth the money. BUT, while they rarely have problems, they aren't good about honoring warranty on those rare occasions.
Difference between mesh vs. solid plate 300B?
I am looking to replace my 300B tubes and I am considering the Emission Labs 300B. This comes in a mesh and a solid plate model. There are other valve manufacturers who make solid plate vs. mesh 300B's, e.g. TJ Full Music.
My question: Can one make a general statement that mesh sounds different to solid plate? If so, what are the differences?
(Second question: the EML 300B mesh has a clear warning not to run the tube at high bias. I am wondering if there are any Cary 211AE owners who are running this tube).
