Carvin V3M High Gain Option
Product Details

Want all the gain you can get? This is our High Gain Option Retube Kit for the Carvin V3M and V3MC Combo Amp. It contains a matched quad of JJ EL84's for the power section. Four handpicked High Gain ECC83S's with one being current balanced for the phase inverter in V4. A nice upgrade in tone.

The Balanced High Gain ECC83S is located in V4 farthest from the input jack.

If your amp is the V3MC Combo amp you may want to consider using the EuroDamper tube damper rings for the four EL84’s. Combo are very hard on tubes because of vibrations which can cause tube rattle with any brand of tube. These are available in the "Related Products” tab as a set of four and will greatly decrease tube rattle. ** Note: the tubes are very close together so you have to stagger the damper rings so they fit. 
These amps are adjustable bias. You can use the "Carvin method" with a Multimeter, or you can use one of our 9 pin bias probes with a Multimeter, or our all-in-one 9 pin "Pro One" bias probe (which reads plate voltage and plate current simultaneously). These are available under the "Related Products" tab.

You can use our Carvin bias video for reference which we did on a V3. The video shows using bias probes and also shows the Carvin Method for EL34’s and 6L6’s. Please Note; a setting of 75 to 95mA is good for EL84’s. If you’re using the JJ EL844’s a setting of between 60 to 72mA is good using the Carvin Method. If you’re using a bias probe then a setting between 20 to 24mA is good for EL84’s and a setting between 15 to 18mA is good EL844’s.

The video below explains the difference between bias probe types.
