| What Did I Do Wrong? Another thought:Does the Rogue have a pentode/triode switch?It may be set to the wrong one for EL34s.Also, Have you tried to bias from a cold start?It says you biased after letting the tubes warm up for half-an-hour.I used to bias my Almarro 318 a... | |
| What Did I Do Wrong? Just a thought...Do the EL34s use the same voltage range (on the bias meter) as the KT-120s? | |

| A visit to the 2015 California Audio Show Regarding High Fidelity cables: Are these new wires like the Lindsey-Guyer (sic) "mu metal" interconnects of 15-20 years ago? These were all the rage back in the day but seemed to fade away (like most "breakthroughs"). | |
| Whats the weirdest concert you ever attended? Leon Redbone opening for Tom Waits around 1979. Big Fun. | |
