Yes, this is no typo. GT-E34-LS is a special version of the well
known EL34. |
|
It has approximately 30 watts power instead of 25 watts. This means
a bigger soundstage, more |
|
headroom and therefore less compression as an average EL34. |
|
Even more beautiful: the frequency range is extended in the low-end
in a way you can't get by
|
|
increasing the
bassknob on your amp.
|
|
What you will hear is a lower cut off point that works out in a very natural and
musical way. |
|
|
|
How does a GT-E34-LS
relate to an
average EL34? |
|
GtrGear tested both in a stereo poweramp and had each powertube
type in a
channel.
|
|
Switching channels/tubes on the fly. There is simply no comparison between both JJ/Tesla's.
|
|
The GT-E34-LS makes your amp sound BIGGER and gives you
back the lowend you didn't knew you |
|
missed it! |
|
|
|
How does the GT-E34-LS
relate to
a GT-EL34-R2? |
|
The R2 is a real EL34 and crunches a little more like no other EL34 does. |
|
The LS is drifting away soundwise from EL34, more
leaning towards KT88. |
|
The R2 starts to breakup/compress earlier
because of the 25 watts vs 30 watt of the LS. |
|
In the end it's all depending on style and taste.
R2 is approx. 30% more expensive b.t.w. |
|
|
|
GT-E34_LS has the same size
and octal-socket as EL34. It is a perfect
replacement of an EL34 |
|
without any problem. Just be sure you bias, just you do after every powertube replacement. |
