From what I saw from pin locations there could be some protection involved and maybe some resistor is blown that provides voltage drop for the offset.
Motorboating after tube change
I posted this on Audioasylum tubes, but I'd like to increase the knowledge base, so here I am.
I own an Aikido preamp that was built for me in 2007. Since I don't use it that much, I haven't replace the tubes till now. After I changed them out, there was clearly audible motorboating emanating from both speakers. I returned each old tube to the unit but the motorboating didn't stop. The only screwup was that when initially replacing the tubes, I accidentally installed a 5751 into the spot for a 5755.
Any ideas?
Thx,
GP
