Home Tube DIY Asylum

Do It Yourself (DIY) paradise for tube and SET project builders.

In addition....

To what Jim said, tubes get a bad rap for microphonics. Many times the sockets are the culprit.
An improperly secured coupling cap can not only mimic a microphonic tube but cause one heck of a feedback loop, even at low volume levels.
If one feels compelled to tap the tube, tap the chassis. Don't tap the tubes.
