12at7 with 12ax7 tubes


Greetings and Happy Easter,

This post has probably been answered before at some point. I have a Symphonies pre V2 that uses three 12ax7 tubes along with a 6x4 rectifier. I wanted to know if I could use a pair of 12at7 tubes for the output section with no ill effects. Thanks to all and good listening.

Sebrof- I guess I WAS off a bit. the 5751 is 30% reduction in gain. These sites have the difference as 40% less for the 12AT7: (http://thetubestore.com/gainfactor.html) (http://cydathria.com/fdm/12AX7_sub.html) and(to me at least)that seems greater than, "slightly more" of a difference(my bad). Both sites mention that the tubes are interchangable. The first site: that they are, "plate voltage compatible".
My thanks to all. I guess my question then is what Gmuffley is stating. I don't want to change components and don't want any damage to boot. I'll check the links given by Rodman99999 and go from there.
A follow up with the 12at7 tubes: I have a pair of Tungsram tubes that I brought for a VTL pre that was sold. I kept the tubes so hence the post. Installed them this afternoon (replaced a pair of Tungsol) and WOW. No difference in gain to my ears and the sonics of the Tungsrams walk all over the Tungsols. The battle of the T's should be the title of this post. : ) Thanks again to all.
This is good to know.
I have an amp coming that uses 12AX7s. I do have some better 12AT7s that I'll investigate dropping in. I didn't know that ATs and AXs were interchangeable. (I do have 5751s coming as well).
