I have really enjoyed the Masco Chronicles. Skip and Mark are great resources! Thanks for doing that.

I believe Mark may have misspoken regarding pre-amp tubes (in "Looking Inside the Masco"). As I understand it, the 6SL7 preamp tube (the stock one) is a higher gain (70 or 80%), between a 12AT7 and 12AX7, and the 6SN7 is lower gain (around 20%), more like the 12AU7.  I think Mark reversed the values.

Thanks again!
