(http://www.premierguitar.com/articles/22739-power-trip-a-guide-to-power-tubes-and-their-signature-sounds?page=6)
I tried written instructions from 1973 Shovel but can't get this site on with a simple touch of a mouse.
I bought this mag a couple of years ago. Premier Guitar. It has great pictures,history,ect...of the major power tubes used in vintage stuff.
If you go to Google and type in (power trip kurt prange) there is a 9 page color picture and history of these tubes that some of you might find really good. It's the easiest format on these tubes I think you will find.
The Packers are way behind so if anyone out there can give me a book report on these 9 pages, I mean I want to know if it is up to snuff for you Asylumites. I bet it all predicting it's worth the search.
I think these pages are print worthy and could be stuck up on the wall near your soldering iron......Mark Korda

Thank you Mark, I don't play geetar but enjoyed reading that full article and listening!
Thanks,
You're the king Jim!.....Mark
Sometimes a visual makes more sense than written instructions.
The Bored should post this graphic where everyone who signs on to become an Inmate would see it.
But that wouldn't cover many existing Inmates, and Mark is far from the only one not to post links correctly.

My post wasn't intended to single out Mark. I threw that together because in his original post he wrote,
"(http://www.premierguitar.com/articles/22739-power-trip-a-guide-to-power-tubes-and-their-signature-sounds?page=6)

So I thought I'd create a visual for him. Mark's a good guy.
I agree with you that many long time posters still can't be bothered to post an active link, despite the fact that other people tell them they won't bother checking out what they've pasted, because they can't make the effort (if you can call it an effort).
I'd like to see the ability to easily create more than one link per post. It can be done using Asylum supported HTML , but it takes a little bit of work. E-Stat taught me that one, so thank you to him!
I don't doubt that and had no intention of singling him out. That was why I pointed out he was far from the only one failing to provide easy links.
Now I read further to learn he is at least trying. I know little about computers so don't understand why a simple Copy and Paste wouldn't work?

I don't understand it either. Copy and paste should work for him, unless there's something we're not seeing.
All you have to do for multiples is do an edit and add it in. Easy.
I know it works that way with multiple images, but multiple links?
I just tried it, and had no luck. Could you explain further?
Thanks.
Hi Shovel, thanks for the good words. I tried just one page with your method but to no avail. I'll try some more tonight. I still have the instructions from a few weeks ago you gave me and will try again tonight.
I used to able to do this with Windows before I got changed up to 10. I have the Dummies book for Windows 10 but still can't find an easy answer.
I owe you Shovel for all the extra tutoring you have given me...sincerely...Mark K.
Kindness is its own reward, as the old saying goes.
Since you have the Windows 10 book, I'd start reading about copy and paste, and see where that leads you. With every version of Windows I've ever used, copy and paste has been the same, but maybe 10 is different.
Below are a couple of screen shots of how I created an active link to your reply to me. (the link is at the very bottom of the message)
1. Highlight the address in the upper left.
2. Right click on the highlighted address to open the menu.
3. Left click "copy"
4. Paste it in the Optional Link URL space at the bottom of your message.
5. Click "post message", per normal.
...is indeed effort intensive when accessing this place with a mobile device. The live, clickable link is SOOOO much more convenient.
this link is useless for those who refer to high fidelity reproduction as illustrated by this comment about 6550s and KT-88s:
Used with guitar, the two tube types sound tight, bright, and powerful, with a slight overdrive crunch and relatively little compression compared to other tubes.
Bright? Overdrive crunch?
I'm having difficulty understanding any relevance when it comes to my VTL amplifiers.
I took a very quick look at the article. Because guitar amps are very different from stereo amps in terms of purpose and design, I wonder how much of the information on the "signature sound" of each tube type applies.
Most of the people who frequent audio boards like this one are more interested in reproduction of recordings. Some audio boards actually require that any posts relating to musical instrument amps be posted in a separate forum - which typically has much less traffic and fewer knowledgeable people involved. Thankfully AA does not treat guitar amp posts that way.
FlaCharlie,
I get what your saying but I wanted someone who knew how to maybe post that article. The pictures and diagrams are just so good. I tried but failed. Thanks for that point though, I understand.....Mark K
