How Long Should a First Watt SIT3 Last ?


I'm fairly certain my Quicksilver Monos are kaput. Im thinking maybe I don't want to mess with the troubles and uncertainties of  tubes. Im considering getting a used SIT3, but how long should they Last considering the internals are no long available if I encounter a problem?

Thank you,

Wolf, hey...you also stated you heard very little to no difference, after you damped the horns as I had suggested. You are the only one of anybody and everybody I know who stated this. Just sayin. My best, MrD.

TC Tubes in St Paul has a tube repair tech. I’ve never used them and can’t vouch for them, but for local repairs, I’d start there.

Nelso Pass has always answered every question that I’ve asked…It might not be the same day, but he answers. I think you’ll enjoy a SIT-3 as I have.

@wolf_garcia Sorry you didn't like them. I think you did not let them fully break-in. I heard what you heard until a few days later and the SNAP*! they changed. But if you're missing anything, it's probably very subtle.
