making who has the most tubes in their system, as if it were some kind of competition for the best system, is utterly ignorant and foolishI'm one of the guilty ones. We are just having some fun and enjoying all the tubes. No one is intending any oneupmanship. We are past all that.

#of tubes? Depends on what the amp is doing and how it’s configured. A power amp could have a single power tube (SET) or it could have 8 paralleled push-pull output tubes. A phono amp could have only 2 tubes for gain and equalization or it could have an output buffer, tube regulators and rectifiers etc. You can see the 11 tubes in my phono amp here |
