hcnelly Posted August 26, 2020 Share Posted August 26, 2020 Just wondering, I have my newer Vrd stereo amp set at ultralinear 100% of the time. I was wondering, once my vrd amp is warmed up, if I could switch to triode mode on the fly? Or do I need to have it set at triode before I fire the Vrd amp up? Thanks, Chad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks, Chad The best thing is to call Craig and ask him about this as well as the best kt88 tubes to use in his amps. We designers get insulted if folks ask others for advice about our creations 😀😀😀 Maynard 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

richieb Posted August 27, 2020 Share Posted August 27, 2020 Good suggestions one and all. Some amps built with the triode/ultra option are designed to “switch” on the fly, others while the amp is static. If it’s the later and current is running you will know it — 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NOSValves Posted September 1, 2020 Share Posted September 1, 2020 Hey guys On The Fly is just fine the only thing is you'll most likely get a electric spark sound out of your speakers. It's not spark going to your speakers its just the amplifier reproducing the sound of the connection change. 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
