WAIT, hold the phone! 1st,I'm not spending 3K for this amp. 2nd, I'm NOT sweating Webers' prices. My reasons for not chosing Weber do not include the price/quality/sound. But since you mentioned it,I'm only getting 1 "cloned" spkr. The other is the real deal-Celestion. The clone may only last a week. It's a Mojo,that happened to be included w/the price.But it was my choice/particular model. No Eminence or Jensens-NO WAY. It's not that I am a pre CBS fanatic,more like there's NO need to spend 3K for a "boutique" amp. I want certain responses from my amp. But why spend, what, 1500-2000 for a pre, when I can have a totally new and reliable/lifetime warranty combo w/the 2 circuits I prefer in an amp,inc all the extra rectifier tubes,2 sets of NOS power tubes,1 Celestion for LESS than 1400? Also,yes its been 2 months into the amp.The wiring has just begun. I figure another month. Does anyone really think,BELIEVE that the "boutique" makers are taking a month to build 1 amp?!?! If so, maybe that's why they charge an arm and a finger for those things!No way they'd make $$ if that's the case. I still can't believe how "cheap" my amp is costing. BUT, this was to be a question on a 6L6 choice. I take it that you 2 think the RCAs' are worth the cost,for the tone. THANX. Check out Fargen amplification/reviews on Harmony Central. We're already discussing a 30 watt Plexi head. Thanx for the replies! Ed |
