I do this with Dennis all the time....

If I lived near Dennis and he was up for it I’m sure I’d take advantage too! Lol!
I am listening to another great combo so I guess I’m not done rolling. I’m going through tubes I’ve bought over the last little while. The combo of a Sylvania 6f8g, Mullard 6aq5, and RCA 5y3g sounds amazing. I still have some French Miniatron, and Telefunken 6aq5 tubes to try. I haven’t given up on the Brimar 6aq5 but I haven’t found an input tube that is satisfying with them yet.
