Title: Voltage Regulation Tubes
Post by Jon on 10/05/11 at 15:42:24

Does any one know if OB3, OC3, and OD3's can be used in the ZP3 or am I just limited to the OA3?

Thanks

I am not sure of the answer to that one. It seems that if the other 0_3's could be used it would be stated in the literature on the ZP3.

I was thinking the same thing...hopefully Steve could chime in on this one.

Anyone have an answer to this? I don't need to roll the OA3, but I do have some other types that I would try if it was possible.

I think a call to Steve is in order. If it were me, I'd try them if I had them and wanted to, I've never had a tube substitution harm a Decware amp. . . and I'm a bit reclkess at times. But Steve would be the one to tell us the answer and he's obviously not seeing this thread.

In my Torii I've tried substitutions for the OA3: OB3, OC3, OD3, some in different brands. I always came back to the OA3s that the amp shipped with. They work best for me.
