I am thinking it has to be my the new tubes I put in since that is really the only thing that changed but I don't know why that would be happening. Maybe I didn't line the pins up right? there were more holes than there were pins and the old tubes pins were numbered but the new ones weren't. I aligned them the same as the old ones were though.
They are supposedly matched JJs, 6l6 tubes. I have a vk112 (peavey), and I put in a Eminence Wizard speaker. I tried playing with someone today and it blew hardcore seeing as the idea was to play aggressive music and I have no low end. But anyway.
I was wondering if anyone had any idea whats up since I don't know. Tomorrow I'll try switching my tubes back to the stock ones since they were working all right (getting worn and unreliable at high volumes but still working).
Like I said the low end is just farty and broke. very depressing sounding.
