derums Posted March 13, 2014 Share Posted March 13, 2014 I was surfing the web and found about these: http://www.jetcityamplification.com/#!retrovalves/ctjr they're 12ax 7 tube replacements. Anyone have any comments on these? Might offer new tonal possibilities. TTK says that using the red series is like throwing a tube screamer in front of your amp... http://thetoneking.com/wp/retrovalves-by-jet-city-full-demo-review-blue-amber-red-retro-valves/ love to know if anyone has experience Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheRealZap Posted March 13, 2014 Share Posted March 13, 2014 I researched them a while back... and ended with this conclusion.... "Why would i want to turn my tube amp into a solid state amp?" and then of course i moved along..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stumblinman Posted March 14, 2014 Share Posted March 14, 2014 I wonder how this would affect the DT25 which only has a PI tube. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brazzy Posted March 15, 2014 Share Posted March 15, 2014 Cool little idea but a bit pricey for me. I'd rather buy a tube I think. I might try them in my Jet City Picovalve one day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
