  • Tube biasing

    Just a quick question...when biasing 6L6GC tubes, it one reads 33 mA and the other 30 mA is this 3 mA difference going to cause any trouble....and the difference is in the matched set and not the circuitry....just checking....if the difference is too great, I will have to search for another set....

    No issue at all. I've seen sets with 30% mismatch that still ran great, sounded fine, no hum.

        When considering "matching tubes", what I look at is the output signal amplitude of each tube (along with current draw).

        Typically, a lower current draw tube will have a slightly lower output amplitude.
