so...
i bought an eminence legend gb128 50 watt speaker and some jj 7591's from fliptops.
i bought new 12ax7's and a nos 7199 from a local amp shop.
i had no luck w/ the 7591's. i called Bruce at fliptops and he offered to take them back. they lit up bright. they worked. but they were burning very hot.heating the room hot. i knew something wasnt right so i pulled them back out. Bruce said he'd exchange them or return my money but i kept them. maybe they'll work in another amp. I'll try some other brands. Bruce seemed like a nice guy, answering all of my newbie questions...
it sounds good as it is right now, with the new speaker, preamp tubes, and the old 7591's in there; i'm just anxious to get some new power tubes. I've never owned a NEW set of 7591's that worked...but i'm hopeful.
