Thought I'd just post an recent upgrade of mine worth mentioning. I was getting a faint "crackling" sound from my amp since new which in no way affected the sound once I started playing. I decided to upgrade the tubes with a recommendation from numerous sources, especially MartyStrat. For V1 I went ...

Eminence Wizard........Outstanding. I had a Cannabis Rex which was really sweet but decided to try out a Wizard and was blown away by the sound. Match made in heaven for the DSL40C.

It is an 8-ohm model and I know the DSL40 can handle the switch by adjusting the speaker input on the back of the cabinet..... but will I lose any output/volume by not i...
