Herbies work a little differently. . .

than most other dampers. Most dampers damp the entire circumference of the tube while Herbies damp only three small spots. This may be cause for the differences heard between dampers. IME most dampers tend to overdamp and rob the music of life. Herbies are just perfect for me, cleaning up the sound w/o robbing the music of its life. I have them on the preamp tubes 12AX7 and amp input tubes 12AT7. I will be trying them on the output tubes soon.
