Classic gear from yesteryear; vintage audio standing the test of time.

Of 800Bs and 5751s (to LineArrayNut).

Curious if you discovered any issues with the slightly higher filament current of the 5751 VS 12AX7. Was your comparison "plug n play" or did you compensate for filament current differences in any way?

Don't have an 800 schematic avail but if similar to 500C the 5751 MIGHT cause a slightly lower preamp filament voltage and 7591 bias voltage...maybe not. Not sure slight voltage changes would affect sonics one way or the other.
