RE: Goodbye Type 45 ....... hello JJ 2A3-40

Posted by used-hifi on October 10, 2016 at 12:30:54:
I would have to agree these old type 45 finals have a "U" shape response when driving a speaker ....heard it myself years ago :) and I was much younger then too! I'm 45 now I still have great hearing today

Now Jeff your going to get all kinds of flack for these statements because it will measure on the bench good and flat in that range!!! I say remeasure while your speaker is connected your amplifier

Obviously if your speakers are fat there in them ranges then your all good!!!

But to be honest the 2a3 tubes are better imo still not good enough in the amps I heard them in my pset 1626 killed them

Anyways let the flaming begin!!
