Tubes for ARC PH3SE


Hi all,
Just bought an ARC PH3SE and though it's been recently retubed (with stock ARC tubes which were pretty expensive), I am wondering what your experiences have been with tube rolling? I also have a set of Bugle boys as well as some Mullards that i will probably try out.
Any thoughts?
thanks,
Byron

ARC tubes reflect that their units are 'cookers' and their tubes tend to last at least 50% longer. then other brands. So, if you do change tubes, they may have a much shorter life. Whether that is okay with you will depend on the improvement in sound, and your budget. I have a 3SE and have rolled the tubes to no real significant change. But, depending on what else is in your chain, you make hear differences, some good, some bad. Enjoy.
