I'm waiting for my 2550 (fully assembled). I'll probably replace the preamp tubes with Tung-Sols, too. For my taste it's the best current production 12AX7. Probably a Sovtek LPS for V3. Have you kept the JJ power tubes?
More importantly: what speaker cab and what speakers do you use?
I like the TungSols, for EL34s I also like Shuguangs. I put a NOS JAN/Phillips 5751 in V2 and it tames things down nicely. This amp has tons of gain. Played through Weber Silvers & EVs. Kinda bright through the EVs. Thumps through the Silver Bells

Thanks HH.
Yes my heaters are green & most of my Gnds. Used Weber Trannies
Just put in a set of TungSols and had band practice. WOW this amp sounds really good!!!!
Top notch Nik

All seems correct on the feedback circuit. All good with feedback loop unhooked.  I'm thinking I need to switch the OT pin 3s also.  Sad
Thanks and I'll let you know how this turns out.

Hi guys (first time caller long time listener)
I've just finished my 2550 build and have a bug. In 50 watt mode on the normal channel i get a high pitch squeal if my presence pot is less than halfway. With the  presence over half the oscillation goes away. Any tuning tips? Thanks in advance. MacG
