Question from tube y newbie


How important is it to have a matched pair or matched quad of tubes? I have a single tube that needs replacing (Svetlana 6550C) and I was wondering if I will be alright just replacing the 1 tube. Or should I replace with a matched pair or matched quad?

Equally biased tubes i.e. matched tubes certainly produce less distortions especially on the extreme passages of music.
