short in a tube-what happens?


I just received a 6dj8 tube which i tested on my tube tester. the reading were fine, however there was a clear short in the tube.

what happens if a tube with a short is installed in your audio gear?

disaster? hum? anyone ever brave enough to find out?

6dj8 is a relatively common tube, to be on the safe side, I think if you know there is some kinds of short in the tube, then replace it with a good one. I assume the audio gear you have is expensive.
