Preamp Tube life ? ...
I spoke to C-J today, I was told appx. 2K-3K hours on the ET5 tube. Then pay attention for noise and distortion. Good thing it only needs one.
Anyone try Gold Lions in their preamp? |

Joe, it is a 6922 Sovtek on your ET5 ?

I haven't tried Gold Lions, but I will be at some point in the near future. I had great experience with their KT88s in my Premier 11A.
On the whole though, I've the stock tubes that C-J specs are quite good. The stock 6922 in Joe's ET-5 is probably an Electro-Harmonix.

..looks like I'll be waiting awhile for the replacement EAT...so I may have to do a bit of experimenting. RAY_4631-1.JPG |

Looks like the Gold Lions are fairly inexpensive, so I may just have to try one out. YEESH
