I've had my new Lynch Box combo for three weeks and One of the J/J EL34 tubes has already shorted out. The bad tube blew a fuse and when I replaced it and tried to bias it, it was reading 10mv lower than the other and I could see the voltage intermittently spiking.
I put in a pair of Russian Grove Tubes I've had for years and its back up again.
I put some J/J EL84's in another amp of mine a few years back. they worked OK, but they rattled so bad I had to take them out for recording. Once they were out I found that the Sovtec's I had in it before sounded better so they never got used again.
I know your results may very, but these are my two experiances with J/J's and to me they are Just Junk.
