Posted by aatos on 2013-12-20, 07:46:44 (184.151.61.15)
I have to buy everything on-line here in small town Canada. Invariably I buy from the U.S. (way cheaper) and I try to pick sellers that offer me a good price (not a ridiculously low price) and look at .......

Great information. Thanks. I just purchased Genalex KT88's on-line at a reasonable price and I know they are new manufacture. I was just wondering if there are inferior copies of those going around, s .......

I have read on a few blogs that there are counterfeit tubes out there, for sale. Has anyone heard of Gold Lion KT 88 copies? .......

Thanks for the info. Especially interesting about fuses blowing all the time. I did replace mine with a standard fuse that finally arrived in the mail and the amp is working fine. The AE-25, probably .......

Sounds like I have a lot of experimenting available. I will start with the Gold Lion KT88's which might find their way here by Christmas. Did you ever have a fuse blow in the amp? My main 2 amp fuse w .......

The manual does say the amp can use several different tubes - EL34, 6550, 6L6, etc. Funny you should suggest the Genalex, because I ordered a set before I read your post. The various blogs talk about .......

Thanks Blackplate The max voltage from the power supply is 337 volts, and the total bias current for the 4 output tubes is 285 ma. I think that is pretty good - not putting too much strain on those K .......
