Tube Rectifiers don't affect tone ONLY in Class A circuits.

A good rectifier swap can do wonders in AB amps, though.

Another thing to consider is that Cathode biasing isn't necessarily free range to plug in any 8 pin tube into the socket - some fine tuning could serve a given tube more than others.

As much as I insanely hate those Epi Valve Juniors, I'm really interested in hearing/playing this Epihpne Blues custom 30 amp.

Thanks for sharing your review :)

I'm very curious to hear what your thoughts are on comparing them Eminence speakers with your other speakers...
