Why do guitar rockers choose tube amplifiers instead of transistor amplifiers?
A: TUBE AMPLIFIERS are operating at higher voltage which makes the dynamics of amplitudes more desirable. Other then that there is no other reason. tube amplifiers are bulky heat generating components efficiency poor and frequency limited.

Can amplifiers sound different?
Yes, they absolutely can and do sound different. An amplifiers sound is colors by the materials used to build it. Is it tube? Solid State? What kind of electronics are in it? Etc. Etc.
What is the name of the tube used in class A amplifier with the function of dual triode developed in USA and published in September 15 1947?
There are two names for the tube used in Class A amplifiers developed in the USA. This valve in the US is called vacuum tube audio amplifier. In the UK they are known as valve audio amplifiers.
What does the Engl company manufacture?

Can the western electric 205d tube be used as a preamp or input tube?
I checked the spec sheet for this tube, and it's good for two basic circuits: low-level amplifiers and oscillators. So yes, it would be fine as a preamp tube or an input tube.
Can you play a bass guitar through a tube amplifier?
Years ago all we had was tube amplifiers. As long as its a bass amp (so you don't blow out the speakers) there is no problem.
What is a rectifier in a guitar amp?
From Wikipedia on the subject of Tube Amplifiers...."Tube instrument amplifiers are often equipped with lower-grade transformers and simpler power regulation circuits than those of hi-fi amplifiers. They are usually not only for cost-saving reasons, but also are considered as a factor in sound creation. For example, a simple power regulation circuit's output tends to sag when there is a heavy load (that is, high output power) and vacuum tubes usually lose gain factors with lower power voltages. This results in a somewhat compressed sound which could be criticized as a "poor dynamic range" in case of hi-fi amplifiers, but could be desirable as "long sustain" of sounds on a guitar amplifier. Some tube guitar amplifiers use a rectifier tube instead of solid-state diodes specifically for this reason."
Where is the best place to purchase a tube amp?
Tube amplifiers can be purchased from several places. They can be purchased from a music store in one's area. They can also be purchased from online retailers such as eBay or Amazon.

What makes double images on hatachi rear projection TVs?
One of two things. A reflected image causing `ghosting' in the signal, or your convergence amplifiers have gone bad. (If it's an older three-tube projection set, that's quite common.)
