Rivera Venus 6 SRV Option

Product Details

It's no secret that Stevie played his amps cranked and preferred a little cleaner sound from the front end allowing you to hear more power tube breakup. Well, this works really well with the Rivera amps too! This kit uses a JJ 5751 for V1 which is in-between an ECC81 and an ECC83S in gain. We follow that up with four ECC83S's with one being a current balanced ECC83S for the phase inverter in V5. The default power tubes are a matched quad of the JJ 6V6S's.

The Balanced ECC83S is located in V5 farthest from the input jack and the 5751 is located in V1.

Combo amps are very hard on tubes because of vibrations which can cause tube rattle with any brand of tube. If your amp is the combo version and you play by yourself in a quiet environment or record with your amp you may want to consider using the EuroDamper tube damper rings for the four 6V6S’s. These are available in the "Related Products” tab as a set of four large dampers and will greatly decrease tube rattle.

These are adjustable bias amps and all you need to check and adjust the bias is a Multimeter. The bias info is printed right on the board next to the test points. If you do not have a Multimeter they are available under the "Related Products" tab.
