Do you normally change out the preamp tubes as well or just the power? How do you know when the preamp tubes need changing? I was thinking my fryette 2502 needed a retube but wasn't sure. Stuck some power tubes in and my God did it make a difference. Didn't realize how anemic it had gotten until I put the new power tubes in. Wow. There are some 12ax7's in my power amp and didn't know if I should change them out. Also didn't know if I needed to put new pre's in my Mak4 or not. I know preamp tubes generally last longer than power tubes. Thoughts.
