Re: Lower, and I am using JJ E34L

I've been way deep into all of the tube specified specs, tube curves, maximum voltages, optimum voltages, recommended amp bias specs....and on and on. BUT the good ole ears have it as the ultimate test instrument when the final judgement needs to be made. The best post I've seen on this came from Joe Rosen (think the name is correct) about bias effects on sonic quality....it put me on the track to know WHAT to listen for at various under and over bias situations. I now (strictly from sonic preference) have my bias set at 45ma vs. the recommended 50ma on my
JJ E34L tubes.....that's the "sweet spot" for my particular amp and set up (but sorry, this really isn't about your your amp....but my experience with my dyna st70). Anyway try to find the post by Joe Rosen on this topic....pretty good stuff overall.
