EL34s with early break up
Posted: Thu 05/28/20 8:10 am
Seeking early break up for EL34, with good singing overtone properties. This is for my JCM 800, vertical inputs all tube signal path. I just recently bought a pair of mullard EL34s and the amp works, but it sounds kinda weak. Not as lively as before
Probably needs biasing, but I have not learned that trick yet. I will have a socket probe on order by next month so I will be able to check the tube voltages in a relatively safe way. So I will bias the amp next month.
Any suggestions for EL34s that are nice and musical, but mainly break up early into saturation overdrive? Thanks!
