6L6's in a Deluxe Reverb

[mresistor]

What do you guys think about running 6L6's in a stock DR. The PT filament winding is rated at 3 amps. Isn't that a little iffy?

I've had 5881's in mine for three years now, although it's just a bedroom amp.  (.9a x 2) +(.15a x 5) = 2.55 amps, might be a bad idea in the long run, but that seems to be a reasonable margin to me.

I ran one like that for a while. As I recall the PT ran a bit warmer but it didn't suffer any failures.

If your heater voltage is over 6 volts with the 6L6 , power transformer is enough powerfull. Normal is 6.3. If under 6 volts, remove your 6L6.
6L6 give a cleaner tone.
