Hello I have just done a tube swap on both pre and power tubes on my d moll and now when I turn up the volume on the amp it doesn't come close to clipping into my two notes torpedo live like before. The tubes are both JJ kt77 and the JJ 83 .. I've rebised the amp to 70mA (35 each).
I should mention that the amp just stopped working and that's when I swapped tubes.
Before the in level on the two notes would be maybe At 8:00 and now it's at like 1:00 and no where near clipping.
Also the bias when I swapped the tubes was reading over 120 mA per side.
If it was that hot could that have make the amp more loud?
 
Well After taking the amp apart I pulled out every tube and replaced the fuses even though those were new too. And the amp worked again! I think there was a preamp tube not fully in the socket. So no the sounds is back and it sounds perfect again!! I love this amp!;)
 
Yeah every time I plug mine in, it reminds me of how badass it is.
Nice to see it was something easy
