Single Ended Triodes (SETs), the ultimate tube lovers dream.

RE: AN/ Jensen silver PIO

limono, hi. Proceed with caution. I had the older Jensen silver PIO in a pair of 300B SET mono amps - 0.22 630 WVDC. They sounded very very good. But. One failed as a dead short. These same caps were OEM by others including AN UK. My understanding from talking to the head tech at another well known tube oriented audio company is the rate of failure of these silver PIO approached 50%! The chances would be better playing Russian roulette. Jensen is making a silver PIO again. I have not tried being a little gun shy at this point.
