We recommend the 6L6 for reliability: In our many tests and continued use of the currently available EL34 type power tubes on the market today, we regret to say that they do not appear to be as rugged in construction as the available 6L6.This is another reason why your new
Make sure that the BIAS Switch is set correctly to match the tube type that you are using. Failure to
do this will result in tube failure that could possibly burn resistors in the Bias supply. Although this is a fairly simple repair for an authorized technician, it is easily avoidable.
ALWAYS CHECK THE BIAS SWITCH setting if you experiment with alternate tube types and you will enjoy uninterrupted performances from your amplifier.
