DoukAudio Test Probes & Leads Editorial Review

The Nobsound Vacuum Tube Amp Amplifier Plate Bias Current Probe Tester is a valuable tool for guitar amp biasing. The tester is easy to use and works well. It allows for the control of cathode current through the plate bias variable resistor. The tester is not recommended for use with 7591 and EL84 tubes. The leads are dangerous and need to be inserted in the multimeter before energizing the amp. The leads are not very long. The tester is passable and will get you in the ballpark, perfect for guitar players wanting to learn how to maintain their equipment.
