Yep, I'll do that. I'll make another post with my feelings on the issue once I get done.

The other weirdness is that I think I now have speakers that are being limited by my JoLida. I am not sure what to think just yet about that one. I've upgraded the internal wirings of the 502 already. I have yet to do the caps, that comes next -- along with the volume and balance pots.

I am not sure yet. Anyway, I am looking for a more apparent midrange. Taming the bass of the 6550's might be a good thing. All these misconceptions about tube setups lacking bass is ridiculous... this JoLida puts out prodigious amounts of it. Anything I can do to help out the mids would be fantastic! Not that the amp or speakers are drowning anything out at all, everything is nice and even -- perhaps too analytical in its balance. Anyway... the experiment will be a success or failure. :) Time will tell!
