Ditto positive comments on the SEDs, especially the EL34s. Running a new quartet of these in a CJ CAV50 and they have all the extension and soundstaging I could ask for. Inner details and quiet backgrounds they do in spades, exactly what I was looking for. Likely one of the best brands of current issue EL34s for audio.
New Tubes- Need Burn-In?
Hey guys- a question.
I just put a new matched quad of Electro Harmonix KT-88EH in my Cayin A-88T Integrated. I properly biased the amp, and after a couple of hours of warm up there is still a touch of "glare" or hardness evident.
I know these brand new tubes need time to burn in...how long a wait is reasonable before I decide whether the EH tubes are the ticket or not? Any tips on what to expect?
Thanks!
