Fortunately we need no more systems here, just perhaps the odd RTR tape or LP to pickup.
Newest hobby is setting up a family photo gallery in the Playroom. Ordered four more picture frames last week because I just came across the wedding photo of Florence's beloved grandmother, also Florence, and one of her at about 16 in her school uniform. At least the good Sisters had taste.

We're going to see Derek Trucks and Susan Tedeschi on June 18 here in KC.
Here is a clip from when Derek was 13 years old and opening for the Allman Brothers. Regards, D-Ray

Look at it this way; How many guy do you know that have rewired the pinout on their maggies to run 12AX7s rather than 6EU7s?
All they did was rearrange the wires to match up to the 12AX7. You still only have 6v going to the filaments rated for 12v. Right? Does their shit burst into flames? No. Relax, there is nothing to go all Bengazi over here. Dave

Most of those twin triode 12nn7s had the heaters centre tapped so that they could also run off 6 volts. Running an 8 volt heater at 6 volts should prolong the tube's life. That is if the heater will heat the cathode enough to make it emit electrons.

There it is. And, I have been told by more than one AKer that these tubes work just fine at 6v, posing no harm to tube or amp.
