Another type of tubes in my renegade

[sebasw]

Hello!

I read the manual for renegade carefully and I noticed that there is information about the new power tubes, for example, KT66, 6v6, etc. whether such a change is associated more with something besides voltage settings BIAS? or simply put a different light, I set the bias and play? I only wonder that, for example, do not give two 6v6 power greater than 20W, so how then can have a 65W amp?

Pretty much just bias and play.

One word of advice though: when changing power tube types, set the bias all the way counter-clockwise before powering up the amp so that you can bias up to the correct specs. That way you don't hit your new tubes with the voltage of a different tube type and run the risk of being too hot.

You can use any one of these power tubes with adjusted bias,but,of course,it will change the amp's power accordingly.Two 6V6's won't give you 65W anymore,for ex. Logic

Thats great! With 6v6 I can reduce power renegade :-D

Thanks for all req.
