Hello,
I have two of these old russian tube amplifiers, Proboi M50. Other is working and other is in peaces. I would like to replace the original 6P3C-1 (which are getting rather old and soon will break) tubes with EL34 tubes, but since I'm pretty much noobie with tube-stuff, I don't have a clue how to do it. I haven't been able to find any information about my amp from the net. So, I'm wondering if anyone has one of these amps anymore and knows how to replace the tubes? |

Hello!
Does your Priboi have the valves with connections on the top?
I think Gintaras in Lithuania has some. He's not on eBay at the moment, maybe he has a holiday, he's ID is "kwtubes".
You might also try in Estonia...
Cheers,
Tom |

One cord from transformer goes to top of each tube. Rest of the pins is located at the bottom of the tubes.
That's a good point, that the amplifier is named Priboi, not Proboi, as the guy told me who gave me these amps :) Now, I started to find some intresting information about my amp. I think I found the number of the hifi-magazine where were an article telling how to change those tubes. Now I only need to find the thirteen-years-old magazine :)
Thanks. |

Hello!
There's a guy in Sweden that has a web site for Pribois, too. And how to make them better, of course...don't know if it's up, though.
Good luck!
