Quad II Advice

injectordynamic · 27th December 2008, 10:07 AM

Hey there.

Apparently I have to post a few times before I can send a private email message.

So here goes.

I have replaced all capacitors and resistors inside of my Quads. Tubes are Svetlana 6L6GC's, Svetlana EF 86's, and GZ32's

I just pulled these back out of storage and would like to insure that everything is correct before I decide to use them again.

I am not interested in substantial modifications, just what may be required to make them work as well as possible.

I will attempt to run a pair of Magnepan MMG's which are inefficient and have a fairly flat impedance of 4 ohms.

They may not have the grunt, but I'll give it a try anyway.

Would any of you experienced Quad II guys like to chime in with a general "check this, replace that, keep an eye out for this post?"

Could this possibly turn into a thread that will cover all bases for Quad II owners?
