Home Tube DIY Asylum

Do It Yourself (DIY) paradise for tube and SET project builders.

RE: not the question I asked guys.......

" In other words if you used the same really good psu for three set amps (just tweaking the B+ to fit) with different output tubes would you hear a big difference between them if everything else was equal?"

The distortion profile of the amp can change just from tube rolling different final tubes of the same type, not to mention different completely different finals with alternate drive requirements.

You can see this sort of thing on a PC spectrum/distortion analyzer.

What your ear can or can't hear as far as a change in something is completely up to you to decide.

Absent getting into measurement applications, you are left to your ears.

IMO/IME, having some balance between measurement and ears seems to be the way to go.
