    Please pull me from the list. Real life stuff would make demoing gear difficult. Thanks, and sorry for the bother.

    Crack safely in my possession.
    One thing I notice though is that there is a really high amount of background noise/static even with pot at 0, with my hd650. Also gain seems really high, I listen at like 7 o'clock (6 o'clock being no sound).

    I used the Tung sol little tube and the cool shaped big tube.

    You know what, that was just the tung sol tube. I switched it out for the elctroharmonix and no more static/noise. Still high gain, but I think I learned I just listen to music quieter than most. When I went to the meet every amp I listened to I had to turn down (and I wasn't just listening after porkfriedpork)

    Meet environments are brutal for that kind of thing. There usually too loud, and most people turn stuff up a little higher because of it.

    On its way to phillipmorgan.

    That was expensive, $52 to ship. But I guess it is going all the way across the country
