Questions about tubes and gear that glows. FAQ

RE: GE 6L6GC Heat Issue

the tubes are drawing more current, working harder, thus causing the extra heat. Whether the filament is brighter is unlikely. It is very hard to quantify that. I would guess that the pair are more used up and thus drawing more current to satisfy the amp's demands. cheers, Dak
