| Tung-Sol kt170 tube started glowing brighter Don't reuse the tube that glowed red (not worth the risk). Pretty certain the P2 has individual bias adjustment for each power tube and if this is the case pick up a new replacement and bias it per SF's instructions. DeKay | |

| Angela Gilbert Yeung Amps I prefer his more traditional work... DeKay | |
| help me identify this amplifier Maybe early Quicksilver, though I don't believe that they have been around for 30+ years. What are the small signal tubes? DeKay | |
| Any recommendation for a CD changer? Is the cable hardwired to the changer, or does it plug in? If hardwired desolder the complete cable/LED(S) and send the whole thing to someone for a rebuild. If it plugs in do the same. DeKay | |
