Bell ringing

168.103.102.14

I was able to control the bell ringing by dropping the filament voltage a bit. Steve Bench got me onto that when I built his 512 6088 battery phono preamp. Those little tubes will howl with the slightest filament over voltage--drop it down a bit and pay atention to physical vibration isolation made a big difference. Though 958As have not been as bad as others in my experience. Probably because their filaments are shorter.
