I've just bought a valve amp, this one -
It sounds wonderful to me, and came with a box of spare valves, but before I try any of the others out I'd like to know what the basic differences are between valves - E34, E84 etc.
I'm going to assume that these two do the same job so are interchangeable?
What does getter mean?
Looking on ebay there are so many variations that I've no idea what I'm looking at, and if they are tested and figures are quoted, what's a good or bad figure?
Is there a simple guide for a simple person to read?
Thanks for any help and guidance!
