Question about KT 88 integrated

gjo · 10th April 2006, 03:40 AM

Folks

I just bought a Melody KT88 integrated, it's not yet in hand, expect it to reach me some time next month.

The question that I have relates to the tube complement, consisting of 12 tubes:

4 X KT 88
2 X 6SN7/6922/6N2/12AX7= a total of 8 small tubes.

I know that some of these are used for the preamp stage-like the 12AX7 and maybe the 6922. Could anyone tell me what each of these small tubes might be used for?

Also, while 12AX7, and 6922 and 6SNY seem to be quite popular and easily avaialble the 6N2 is new to me-maybe there's another type number for this tube? Any idea what this tube might cost, from areplacement point of view?

Any input welcome.

Thanks

George

couldn't help much more without a schematic, the others are often somewhat interchangeable.
