Hi,
William Donzelli <aw288(a)osfn.org> sadi:
How often does
a home user clip thier 300Watt amplifiers these days?
Anyone that is abusing a tube amplifier with powers like this should have
their mouths filled with cement. There just aren't that many tubes being
made these days...
I regularly abuse my tube amp that way - but I'm a guitarist and I'm
*supposed* to do that :-) You can't beat the smell of a hot ouput
transformer and the sight of four 6L6s glowing red-hot!
Anyway the Russians, Chinese and Indians still make the tubes, and in
fact have been increasing production lately to meet demand.
