Re: thump on cayin/spark a88-t

Just like you, I am new too in tube amps so I don't know which tubes will be the best for this amp. I believe the Svetlana 6550s are better that the K88Ts but have no first hand experience however.

If it sounds better than that is the way to go.

I do not want to roll any tubes till the amp is in the guarantee period. I will probably do that once the period elapses. Since how long have you owned this amp? What speakers and source do you have?

I am also concerned about the servicing of the amp - particularly regarding cleaning the tube pins and socket - as my environment is quite dusty. What do you do for this?

Did you check out about the thump problem. I heard my amp yesterday and there is definitely a very soft but thight thump instead of a click that I mentioned earlier. So I guess this is normal.

Regards
