Hello everyone, I'm new to the site and recently purchased a cronus magnum and wanted to know where I can purchase a set of 'socket extenders' that Rpf mentioned. Also can the KT 120's be used if the sockets are in fact extended?
Power Tubes for Rogue Cronus Magnum?
I have a regular Cronus which I like a lot. It sounds really good with the EL34/6CA7/KT66/6L6 family of tubes. Not so good with 6550s.
According to Mark at Rogue the power supply and other upgrades in the Magnum edition match better with the 6550/KT88 family. It would be nice to be able to have that extra power at times. But I really like the sound of the Black Treasure 6CA7s and Genalex KT66s I use and want to know that they will still sound great in a Magnum before I upgrade.
So, has anyone with the Magnum used these tubes (or other EL34/KT66s) and how do they sound?
And how do they compare with whatever KT88/90/6550s you're using?
TIA
Rob
