You want to build a fever level acoustic experience? The electronic pipe is the soul of a coward! The features, applicable scenes and selection points of popular electronic tubes such as 6l6gc, el34 and 6p3p are included in this paper. From sound style to life parameters, hand-held hands teach you to avoid the thunder trap and easily match your sound system. Whether you're new to hi-fi or an old burner, this encyclopedia will help you pick out the core of the "courage" and the soul of the music
What's an electronic pipe? It's the gallant heart
Have you ever heard that kind of music that's warm, nuanced and with a little human smell? It is likely to come from a “coward machine” — that is, an audio operation using electronic tubes (also known as vacuum tubes) as magnifying elements. The electronic tube, though small, is where the gallant heart and soul are located。
The elves in these metal glass bottles, which had been on stage since the beginning of the last century, were initially used for radio communications and were later discovered by music lovers with their unique sound charms. Today, they are still “holinesss” in the hearts of hi-fi fever friends. The different types of electrophones, like musicians of different characteristics, bring a distinct sense of hearing: brightness, thickness, and “simulation” and “arous sense”。
Common e-barrells are much better than puzzles: 6l6gc vs el34 vs 6p3p, who better suits you
6l6gc: called “american power”. This quadritic tube, produced in the united states, has a high output power and a wide dynamic range, suitable for driving high-sensitivity soundboxes, especially for rock, jazz and pop music. Its sound is clean, its low frequency is strong but not obscurantist, and its medium-high frequency is crystallized, and it is the standard choice of many classic urchins。
El34: "the king of rock" of european origin. Born in the united kingdom and widely used in legendary brands such as marshall and quad. El34's sound is warm and full, with a touch of oil, especially for classical, folk and human singing. It is, however, more demanding in terms of power supply and needs to be compatible with resistance to matching。
6p3p: "the king of sex prices" of national production. This is a tripolar tube produced in china, which is small in shape and has performance close to 6l6gc, but at many prices. Although power is somewhat low, the sound is sweet and dialysis is very well suited to an entry player who has a limited budget and pursues “boldness”. Many use it as a “trainer” or a substitute。
A simple comparison: if you want to "flash," choose 6l6gc; pursue "hot" and "el34" is more appropriate; if you want to save money and not lose a sense of quality, 6p3p is a good choice
How? These five key parameters cannot be ignored
Don't come up and buy the most expensive one. Select the electronic tubes
Remember: there's no "best" pipe, only the "best" pipe! It's the king's path, based on your gallant model, the soundbox characteristics and the sound preferences。
Grass recommends & buy: how do you start with the new guy
For those who have just come into contact with the nerve machine, we make a few rational suggestions:
Recommended group 1: 6l6gc (nationally produced high-quality tube, approximately 80-150 yuan/s) suitable for a medium-to-high-end pusher, with a very high value for money and a clear and powerful voice, is the first choice of the newer。
Recommended combination 2: el34 (e. G. Tung-sol or ecc88-system series) (approximately 180-300 yuan/sec), suitable for users who like classical and human voices, with a sound-temperature resistance, subject to ensuring that bold machines support the model。
A portfolio of 3:6p3p (earth or crown) (approximately 40-80 yuan/swidth) is recommended, and a “sweet tube” for those with limited budget may be used as a test water or as a back-up tube for learning debugging against sound。
Note: do not randomly replace electronic tubes with different specifications. Avoid mixing tubes with different models or excessive power differentials, which could result in circuit imbalances, heat abnormalities and even damage to equipment. The first replacement is proposed under professional guidance。
Conclusions
The electronic tube is not “the more expensive the better” but “the better”. Whether it is 6l6gc that pursues power, or e34 that is obsessed with the hysteria of alcohol, or 6p3p that is finely calculated, it is only by understanding the principles, matching the equipment, and making a rational mix, that the gallant machine can unleash the beauty of music. Don't be blind. From now on, be the owner of your ears
