I'm doing a major Crack rebuild and since I have far more 6SN7 tubes (currently with the Garage1217 adapter), I'd like to just enlarge the 9 pin hole and replace it with an 8 pin octal socket that I have on hand. Is there a guide or listing of what pin numbers will change from the 9 pin to the 8 pin? Searches have found others that have done this, but not the specifics.
Also, can you run a 6SN7 without the Speedball upgrade?
Cheers!
