Hey there PRS people, a few questions regarding tubes ...
I biased my MT15 today, must say it was really simple using the dedicated ports on the back and wanted to ask for advice regarding your approach to biasing, I mean what do you aim for, do you go by the sound, stick to 30 +/- 5(in regard to my amp, I understand that different amps have different biases), have it somewhere between 25-30 mV?
Today my numbers were 25.5 left and 27.0 right before the biasing(this amp only allows biasing both tubes at the same time), then I put them to 28.0 and 29.5. Is a constant 1.5 mV difference between tubes within the usual boundaries?
Follow up:
Well after playing, I must say that I liked the initial setting more and have dialed it down back to 26mV left and 27.5mV right, for now I think I prefer this sound, will see with time and experimenting a bit more where it takes me. It most likely also depends on what type speaker I use, what kind of pickups I have in my guitar, what kind of space I rehearse in, in what state the electrical installation and so on ... do any of you use a power conditioner or some kind of filter or el.interference blocker?
Cheers!
