He was prolly running at half power-you can do this by pulling 1 tube from each pair:2 outer; 2 inner; or every other power tube but NOT 2 from only 1 side of the quad. This reduces power by half and approximately 3db overall. BUT to do it properly you need to also HALVE your OHMs. ie: you got a 5150 4x12 that is 16 Ohms-you pull 2 power tubes and then flip the ohm switch to 8. No biggie.

CONGRATS ON THE SUPA-DUPA-DEAL!

That's about as good as me getting my 5150 full stack a couple years back from some pawn shop for $550 OTD!

Yeah, I knew about halving the power of an amp that way, I just assumed that he didn't know what he was doing.

Ignorance is not bliss. Ignorance only hides the truth. And the longer that truth has to hide, the more it stings when it makes itself known.

Final UPDATE!

Talked to my tech today, the beast lives! It's now 100% funtional!

He cleaned up what ever was dumped on the board that caused it to go in the first place, cleaned the pots and tube sockets, biased it, and let it run for a while, and had no issues!

The last time he played a 5150 he wasn't too impressed, but he said when he cranked the clean channel with the gain dimed he was blown away!



Pic/video story when I get it back!

It may be about 2 weeks before I can even get a minute of my own time to do it, but i'll try and get at least one video up. Or maybe i'll make a video story out of it (like the one guy did with his baritone agile). Rather than taking a million photos.

Now if only I can figure out how to do some video editing...

A camera tripod would be nice as well. I need to find a cheap one.
