Those sound really good and they have a little more 6L6 flavor in the lows, but still a typical EL34 upper mid/top.
yes, definitely like a 6L6 with too much bass for higher gain IMO.
What does the 6l6 bring to the table over the EL34?
It's really a preference though. I dig both 34's and 6l6's
They don't go into sterile 6550 territory, do they? Almost time to retube but I don't want to get burned on experimentation. Thanks
To my ears they don't. Im not a big fan of 6550's but I have heard amps that sounded good using them but the whole preamp section was revamped. The 6550's have a different midrange then the 6l6's
With that said, can you put 6l6's in your Marsha or would they be going into a different amp? I didn't think you could ?
