Is this still the Tung Sols that blow up in the CF position or is this a newer thing? In like '09 you couldn't give them away to anyone with a Marshall if they are Thee Tung Sols.

Larry, you still around here? Larry torched like 3-4 in a row in a Vox Nightrain just for flipping the switch. Couldn't even get probes on the sockets before they would go be with Elvis.

They only hum because they don't know the words.

I just went through this with the tung sol x7 . The LPS will die also.
For the hum just elevate the heater supply...
