... sportin new Penta KT66's...

I won't say nothing more about your amps...you already know my opinion. smile.gif
Are they the ones make in China for Penta Labs ?
I wonder if you ever tried the Sovtek 5881WXT ? ...but be careful, because they can blow your mind. biggrin.gif A friend of mine who have Fender and Mesa amps - for guitar, not hi-fi...- bought the other day the Sovetks and i listen to the amps and you almost can cut the sound in slices...if you know what i mean... soundt/awesome.gif

the Penta are Chinese made Alvaro, and they sound decent too, I never woulda guessed! soundt/afro.gif These are the only other output tubes I've tried other than my orignal smoke-glass GEC's, and clear-glass GEC's. I'm always on the lookout for other swappable output tubes, thanks for the tip Alvaro!

Concorde II

EL84/6BQ5 amp (apparently you can unhook a set of OPT's and run this badboy SE!

hifi_nut- 03-21-2008
Very interesting. it´s the first time I see a stereo amp with two output transformers per channel,sothat really seems to indicate you can run them PP or SE.

I bet those are pretty rare.

Your amps killing me. biggrin.gif
BTW, McIntosh use to have in a few models - the one from MGibson for example - two output tranformers as well.
Great find. Again. soundt/thumbup.gif

I wish they were mine Alvaro, I just added the pics to the Electrohome thread.

because I have 1 negative feedback, the seller wont let me bid on the SE one unsure.gif

clint e.- 05-19-2008
Another one for your Electrohome collection? smile.gif
Btw, what happened to that Concorde II? Did you got it?

bolly- 05-19-2008
the Concorde II was a lil too expensive for me Alvarro, and the car radio was sumthing I found, I never bought her although I did think it was cooL! soundt/afro.gif
