slightly neurotic question from a tube newbie


I was moving my stereo (Jolida 302brc) and bent one of the the tubes. I took it out and straightened the pins, but it doesn't sit as tight in the sockets as the others, but works fine. Could this cause a problem down the road?

Thanks -- Marty

Bent tubes are usually not an issue. If the glass gets loose from the base, that's an issue (hey, I've epoxied those too).
Best solution, replace the stock tubes. Jolidas can be a much better amp with anything other than stock.
