      Hi,              I put a pair of 572B tubes in my AL-811 amp and they died.              One went to a plate current of 600 ma and the other 75 ma.              Anyways, DX engineering tubes are coming.              I checked all my 572B tubes one at a time and selected the best I could for       the amp. The worst case sceneria was 75 ma.              Here goes.              600 ma       150 ma       85 ma       75 ma.              Am I going to trash my amp or will the output just drop?              It's holding at 500 watts right now. For 100 watts in.              So, should I leave well enough alone or should I only the 2 tubes in there as       soon as they arrive?              If one fails short could that take my amp out?              Best 73,       Alan       VY2XU              --- WinPoint Beta 5 (359.1)        * Origin: Original WinPoint Origin!
