Changing Tubes in my BE-100

I don't mind ripping apart my other amps but the BE-100 is sacred and wanna know what to expect. Are there any pics floating around I'm missing?

Thanks!
If I remember right, it's a blue plastic pot on top of the board that a screwdriver fits in. Really can't miss it
 
How about the Current Tube recommendation ? I've gotten JJ's from Eurotube in the past but wonder what's shipping in BE's currently...


(I know this has been covered but I'll be dammed if I can find the topic.... :confused: )

Like I said, you can’t miss it. Pull out your chassis and just look at the board. It will be highly visible. Nothing to rip apart.

No prob. In the SB, it is indeed blue, with a very conspicuous notch to fit a screwdriver or similar tool.

I would try the RCA or the JJ's in V1-V2, and the Chinese in V4-V5. But I like Chinese in V2.
V1 is HBE & Clean.
V2 is input stage
V3 is BE & HBE I think
V4 is Effects loop (pre-solidstate loop)
V4 phase inverter.

Just try them out and see what works best.

Congrats you have an early 1 input Handwire BE100 from 2013 built in turret board tube buffered effects loop.. you can try the RCA and jj on V1 and V2 and let you ears to be the judge. Put on V3 and V4 the Chinese ARS and last on v5 the other Chinese tube. If
 
Bumping. Gonna put new pre’s in my JJ100. I have a lot of tubes: Ruby, Tungsol, TAD, JJ, Sovtek WA and LPSs, chinese 12AX7b, etc. what’s your recommendations for V1-4?

Thanks!
