Do tube dampers improve sound?


I recently purchased a tube pre-amp and several NOS 6922 tubes (EH, JJ Tesla, and Philips). Should I consider buying tube dampers? Do they really help the sound? Thanks

Hey Roger,
Tube dampeners make a noticeable improvement in performance. They tighten the bass, clear up the overall sound, and reduce microphonics. Definitely worth it, and they are cheap. Used them on my AES/Cary pre with great results.
So what is up with your system. I see you have a Dynaco tube pre.
