I was moving my stereo (Jolida 302brc) and bent one of the the tubes. I took it out and straightened the pins, but it doesn't sit as tight in the sockets as the others, but works fine. Could this cause a problem down the road?
Thanks all -- this is what I get for trying to change the speaker feet at 11:30 at night! I looked again this morning and it was seated pretty tightly in the socket, just not as snug as it was when the sockets were brand new.
The only tube plans I have are replacing the stock Jolida tubes at some point!
Thanks again for helping a rather green audio junkie.
Bent tubes are usually not an issue. If the glass gets loose from the base, that's an issue (hey, I've epoxied those too). Best solution, replace the stock tubes. Jolidas can be a much better amp with anything other than stock.
