Which is odd because Sino tubes are much cheaper.

I don't hate JJ tubes that bad, I just have always found them to be dark with poor harmonic content and there are more quite tubes out there. I simply don't buy them.

Heading home today after almost four months gone. Learned a good lesson. Here is a shot from where I am now.

See you guys on the Roadhouse Sunday.

In my 2266c I have had JJ's break twice under the spring retainer on the tube shield. The pressure of the spring crushed the glass while changing tubes. I don't use them anymore. Hi everyone good to see you. Have been very busy lately and have not been very active on the forum.
