Hi.

Just wondered how hot Einstein should get. I have noticed that after a 2 hour show he is running pretty wild!! Not alarmingly, theres no smoke :D , but its still very hot...

Serial number is 004 3/13, it has original Ruby EL34BHT in from March 2010. Amp was hardly used when I got it, bedroom use only, and has done 30-40 gigs since.

Was planning on a retube at the end of this year, just don't want to be running something that may cause a meltdown.

Has no tonal issues at all.

Anyone tried the EL34 BG in Einstein? Any reports on having done so?

Thanks in anticipation of your responses.

Regards
 
It´s getting hot because of the air streaming from
the tubes on top of the chassis.

Please no concerns
 
As ever thanks Peter for the exceptionally fast response.

I assumed as such, but with my. Heat rises of course, and projects straight forward like a rocket out of the speaker also.....

What about the EL34BG in Einstein? Marked difference?
 
Hey, I never heard an English man complain that it is too hot ! :D
 
The Einstein is running Hot & Wild because she is finally getting out of that bedroom of yours, Graham! :lol: :LOL:

Hey Jens. yeah I see what you mean. I can keep my fingers warm on Einstein!!!

It was owned by another when it was being played at bedroom volume. Lucky me they decided to sell.

Within a week of owning it we were gigging. Its a busy amp now, and being used as it should be. I can't use it at home really, temptation to crank it is too strong!!!

Possibly the most inspirational musical purchase I ever made.

Its a beyond serious piece of equipment!!!

Love the Einer!!! :rock:
 
Bad news for tree huggers and Greenpeace members:

Graham hast just proven the fact that DIEZEL AMPS contribute to global warming, in a major way !

Arrest that man at once ! :gethim:
