If you don't mind me asking, you also happen to own a Firebottle triode wired amplifier (or used to) on top of your PSE, is that correct? And same for Bearcity (or perhaps the Hot-Rod version with 20w OPTs)?
I used to lurk on this forum on a regular basis some years ago but never ended up pulling the trigger until last week.
Cheers,

Good move on the Pope tubes. I tried a 5R4GY rectifier with the Popes but in my rig a 5Y3 sounds better with the Sophia blue 6SL7. The JJ 5Y3s arrives today and I'll give that a go.
I still have the triode amp. It's the same transformers etc. as the HO and is simply triode strapped. It can easily become a HO amp. I bought the PSE from Beatlebum. Both are fine amps.
