Questions about tubes and gear that glows. FAQ

RE: So what's your point

I read a LOT. And you should see some of the stuff about rectifiers both tube and SS.
Some swear by NOS Mullard or some such while others modify the 'Copper Cap' Weber SS device.
I'd like to LOCK a bunch of these guys in a room with ONE key out.

You shouldn't worry about my 'process'. It usually works in the end. The trick is to make Marginal OCD work FOR you. Research is good, even if you toss much of it in the end.

What got me started were various posts about how much current DOES or DOESN'T such an amp need. Most of it was about increased current needs of output tubes like the KT120, where I'm NOT even thinking of going.

Next Step? Drop 'up' north to OC or LA and listen to the KLIPSCH Forte IV speakers. And perhaps others in the HERITAGE line. If I hate 'em? No Move. but I won't run such high sensitivity speakers on 500 (8ohm) SS watts.
Too much is never enough
