All things being equal to someone else’s amp (voltage, bias, load) then a similar tube should sound similar in your amp. The load is your speaker, and every speaker responds differently to different frequencies, meaning the…[Read more]

It would be easy to just list tubes that I like for various reasons, but that would not be benificial to you. A power tube’s sound depends on a lot of other factors. Even though people are following the same basic schematic, your choice of speaker, power supply, output transformer, and preamp tube will affect the power tube’s sound. It would be…[Read more]

It sounds like your 1/4″ plug is shorting. Shrink wrap the wires separately before screwing the plug together.

I looked at the images you have. I can’t tell from the image, but do you have both resistors installed on your input jack. I couldn’t see the 68k grid stopper between the jack tip and pin 2 of the 12ax7.
