I enjoy your post very much and over the past couple of years have learned a lot from them. But, you have a nasty demeanor. Why is it acceptable to verbally assault others?
Expanding questions about tubes in a preamp
Hello to all...
Started with a (helpful) discussion titled "How to select tubes for a line level preamp"... Expanding questions that have generated from that...
Have learned that hum/noise from tubes is a major consideration - now trying to figure cheap ways to address quieting the 12AX7s and the EF86s.
Would like to try "banding" the tubes with rubber ring washers - one?two?three per tube?
Where should the rings be on the tube: Top? Mid? Bot?
Can you over dampen a tube?
Knowledgeable tube users/ Masters input/suggestions please...
