Title: 12AU7 fit
Post by: tipatina on August 10, 2024, 11:31:40 AM

Hello, Working on a crack build. Suppled 12AU7/67AS7 inserted for tube glow test and both passed. 12AU7 very tight going into socket and gets almost but not quite flush. Cant see ant socket issues and 12AU7 pins are relatively straight. Any thoughts? Thanks

The socket connections are very  tight for the first few insertions. They will loosen up fairly quickly.
