Lamm ML2 power cords and tube rolling

I have ML 2.1's and have used many NOS tubes including Telefunken and Mullard. The latter was not my taste BUT "wow" to the Telefunken 12AX7. Presently I have circa 1965 with a rib plate. Each tube was ~$350 but bear in mind that this is the first tube the signal sees and IMO is the only tube worth rolling in the amp.

As for AC PC's I use all Nordost Valhalla here and throughout my system.

BTW be certain to change the 6N6P tube on that amp yearly as recommended by Vladimir.

Buy the 6N6P from Vladimir, They are very inexpensive

That's why you need the Tele "ribbed" plate and not the flat plate

"Are you saying that the ribbed plate Tele's has a more balanced, richer sound on the ML2's? As for the 6N6P's, I have been trying to buy them from Lamm...but their response times are lousy..they took 4 days just to quote me a price ($ 40 each), and I have been waiting 5 days now to get a PayPal invoice from them...."

The ribbed Tele IMO is the best one

I have never had a similar experience with Vladimir as you did. A simple followup phone call I bet would work

They only use Paypal

"Vladimir made a big deal about matched pairs for his amps. "

While other 6C33 tubes can be bought Vladimir does keep stats on every amp he has made. Personally I buy my 6C33 tubes from him and have never been disappointed. The only tube I have ever bought other than him were the NOS 12AX7 Telefunken which I have never regretted
