  And I believe after a bit of searching I can just follow my manuals instructions. Looking forward to this.

  I have a 2011 Stereomour and want to switch to 45. Should I just follow the instructions in the manual? thx
Yes, but just to ensure proper operation, the blue choke wires stay connected to the tube sockets, while the black choke wires are removed from the power supply PC board and the red choke wires take their places.

  Tubes are on the way and I'll attempt this modification within the next few days. Thanks for the reply.

  Seeing this amp was configured for 2a3 the black choke wires are a bit short and instead of adding a piece of black wire so they reach 17 & 19L can I just cap them with a piece of heat shrink? thx

2a3's or 45's?  You had 2a3's in it, right?

  Darn, this is silly good. Paired with my passive preamp there's headroom to spare using the modded Cornwalls. I should really be out getting some chores done.

45s are special, aren't they?

Enjoy!
