In Reply to: RE: Tube rolling preamp or power amp gain tubes, which ones (or both)? posted by 2121@comcast.net on January 16, 2017 at 09:03:10:
Is your goal also in line with the actual amp and general setup you have?
I'll give you an example. A few years ago I bought a Conrad Johnson tubed preamp with the simple minded idea that it had that classic tubey preamp sound. Well it DIDN'T!. And no matter how much tube rolling I did that never happened.
I later began to understand the sonics of the CJ preamp and now I would not change it for the world. BTW that also happened with the amp I also bought. Fate has a funny way of bringing you places you never imagined you would get to.
