Jazz Club..... Nice....

Hi Dave,
Congratulations on acquiring the Yaqin amplifier as they have earned a very solid reputation for reasonably priced tube amplifiers. Does your amp allow switching between Ultralinear and triode mode? If so do you have a preference?

I  believe that your appreciation for this amplifier will grow as you delve further into jazz recordings. Good tube amps just seem to get those instruments and voices sounding right! 😊.

@petg60, 
"Plenty to discover" you wrote. 
Absolutely true!
I didn't want to overwhelm a new listener with a hugh list of good jazz recordings, which could easily be done. No doubt Dave will discover many as he becomes more familiar with the jazz genre.

Thanks everyone for your suggestions. I love this forum, a wealth of knowledge and great advice., yes Charles it can be switched between triode and ultralinear.  I'm still expirimenting  sounds great on either but I'm leaning towards triode with headphones and ultra through speakers..  Will definitely do some tube rolling any advice on tubes will be greatly appreciated  6j1s for the pre amp and el34 for the power tubes.

Cheers Dave

Hi Dave ,
Many owners of el 34 amplifiers seem to be quite enthusiastic about the Genalex Gold Lion KT 77. It is said to be a direct drop in replacement for the el34. Some seem to like JJ electronics and the Mullard re-issue el34.

Dave,
I have used a 300b amplifier for a number of years. Back when I used my el34 amplifier I had the Svetlana Winged C and they were good sounding tubes.
