socketed devices so solid statesmen can have as much fun as tubers.Then a typical question might be:
John Curl: Can I substitute ZF17AU1 output transistors for the stock ones in a Parasound NewAge Model 15 amp?
or typical comment might be:
I replaced the Toyon resistors in my Yamaneer amp receiver with Holco's and now it improved the sound by 6.7%! Sounds better than my friends $6K Krell amps now.
Then again, all I need is a brightly glowing 811A with only the filament lit to really make a plain box exciting. I think I'll try it with an old Japanese amp. All I need to do is find an amp with room for a filament tranny, punch a hole in the top cover of the amp and put a tube socket in it. I'll bet I could even convince some folks that it sounds better!
