Preamp Plate Resistors | Fazio Electric Throwback to 2021

[@Andy-ql9wh]

Hi Colleen, It's been a tough day, I just got home from a celebration of life of a friend of over 35 years, I came home, and your vid popped up. Somehow just the sound of your voice helped sooth my raw emotions. Thank you, Peace, Love

This is the sound that carbon composition resistors make when they start producing noise as they age. With vacuum tubes, I’ve often experienced that the tube generates a sparkling noise, which sounds like the crackling and popping of a campfire. Thank you for showing this and explaining how to fix the issue.

Oh, that analog multimeter in background at the start brings back memories. We used Simpsons when I started as a test engineer at Megacorp. We had Fluke digital ones available, but my boss didn't trust them so he wanted us to use the analog ones.

Hi Colleen, received my shirt today, it's AWESOME! I will buy any more funny shirts you come up with! The pizza tube is just so dang funny to me. Keep it up dude

[@SeanKerns]

I run into this problem all the time. Thanks for the video!

[@weschilton]

Nice little lesson there!

[@bobbyohanesian4228]

Love you, love the educational aspect combined with better video production now! F*•*kin’ A! Keep it up! Do you like Leslie’s?

[@kurtfw4581]

Thank you very much for this tip! I own a Tremolux which fortunately works well - but it is good to know which problems have been encountered and how to fix them!

[@petezah6557]

Nice this is what my bassman has been doing!

[@JamesJones-d5s]

You are very impressive and thank you for the bit of knowledge and appreciate your time an effort !!!!

[@98Audio]

Pure gold you ROCK 🔥

[@bobbyohanesian4228]

Hooray😊a new one! Gonna listen through Dynaco tube amps with JBL 4311s (1970s) the good stuff not crap they make now! ( I used to work at a Speaker reconing shop -- I know!)

[@BasicDrumming]

Great video.

[@ericwilson2585]

That's awesome... I was kinda guessing cathode resistors at first. But hey, that's why I follow, right? Hahaha.

[@longrunner258]

Lower resistances (as used at the cathode) usually degrade less than high resistances (as used at the plate).

[@hannowirth7245]

a slope resistor and 2 plate resistors that is, hello from Germany!

[@noslen954]

excellent troubleshooting ❤

[@jaybowles112]

Nice fix!

Hey Hank, how's goin bro?

[@justthisguyyouknow666]

TIL pre-amp tubes are hot swappable.

[@zdenkokovac2896]

🤗👌👍💖💖🌈💫💫

[@geoepi321975]

D lab says he changes the disk caps also 😊

[@killercurl1]

no way you really like lecroix

Good to see there is an attempt to get rid of that horrible voice crackle that you were using in videos three years ago . . . that voice effect of women is disgusting .. . I see you are till struggling with that fake voice effect but you are doing much much better at talking normally.
