Hindsight is a stunner eh! Added to Reverb & Ebay saved searches.
That said, if I were after subtle âwarmthâ or coloring Iâd use my AH. Better sounding and way more flexible. The LPB2ube has a crunch/sizzle to it that I donât associate with âwarmthâ. Standard tubes in it.
Quite impressed running a Machinedrum through a pair of the Klark Teknik Pultec inspired racks. Was considering swapping out the Bugera tubes but they do sound good as is. Nice deep and top end enhancement with a bit of warmth even in bypass.
I prefer the sound to an RNC, Analog Heat, Niio track thickener, Overstayer VCA and Overstayer FET, which have all been in that position previously.
Never was a fan of massive gain, so I usually swapped 12AX7s with 12AU7s as they have ~1/3 the gain, with more range, depending on the circuit.
Sometimes youâll get lucky and find a set that isnât too brittle in the highs, doesnât kill the bass, with nice and thick mild saturation in the mids.
Me too. We may be dueling in the future. Haha.
Ha - whoever wins has to let the other use one of the channels
