Anyone replace the 811A's in their Centaur with 572B's.
Svetlana claims that their 572B's can be used as a drop-in replacement for
the 811A's to provide up-graded performance.
I am curious as to what the up-graded peformance would be?
Thank-you & 73,

Ken, the 572B's can be substituted for the 811A's. I did it when I had my
Centaur amplifier. Watch your drive though, the 572B's produce more output
than the 811A's and the power supply in the Centaur is designed for a maximum
of 600 watts output and you don't want to damage the the power supply. The
572B's can take a bit more abuse than the 811A's.
Good luck, 73 de Jim K2ZF
