Zen Se84 to el34 conversion possible?
01/14/12 at 12:33:51
 
Hello,  I have a old SE84c with hazen mod that I love.

Would it ever be possible to convert this to use el34 tubes for a bit of extra power / something to do?

It might prove more practical to acquire another old SE84 and bridge two of them in mono.

The way to go, imo. Also depending on your speaker load you could change the opt's (if your diy inclined) I have a pair of SE84 cs that I changed the opt's to Trancender 3k into 8 ohm's. I now have more power than I know what to do with a better mod might have been to get 1.5k opt's and pull one of the sv83's from the amps but at least I'm getting window-shaking power in the bass from a pair of HDT's! and that is no mean feat.
