try rolling your input tube into some other brand like the Telefunken ecc-83 
Modwright LS100 versus Rogue 99

Modwright LS100 versus Rogue 99
Jriggy,I guess you're correct to say that ModWright gear takes a good 3 to 4 hundred hours to settle in. I have less than sixty hours on my unit. Compared to the Rogue 99 Magnum the sound is still a bit edgy. Though I noticed it got smoother from ...
