[QUOTE="fredeb, post: 742404, member: 13623"] Yes ! Start 'em up already ! :dop: I must say , they sound fantastic now with the 6P3S's . I've turned them up a bit now and they're absolutely clear and quiet ( no background noise/hum ) , even the bass is rather good , which I wouldn't expect from this kind of power ( 17w ? ) . The speakers they are playing through are ~91dB MTM's of my own doing - so , reasonably efficient , and I suppose very efficient compared to the Quad ESL's that these amps traditionally powered . I'm using an Audiolab 8000Q as pre and have just adjusted gain to 9dB ( in fear I started on 0dB of which +15db is the highest setting ) . With a 220 ohm resistor ( instead of 250 ohm that's there now ) they will be biased solidly into Class A . [/QUOTE]
