GETTING STARTED

TUBE swapping

Lyr accomodates any 6DJ8, 6922, ECC88, 6N23P, 
6BZ7, and 6N1P tube types, so feel free to swap 
the stock tubes to “tune” the overall sound  
signature to your needs. 
To swap tubes:
1. 

Turn off and unplug the amplifier. Wait a few 

minutes for the tubes to cool.
2. 

Carefully extract tubes by gently rocking them 

back and forth and pulling upwards. Yes, we know 
it’s a pain in the kiester. Have patience, or ask a 
friend with small hands to help.
3. 

Carefully insert the replacement tubes. Align 

the pins to the sockets and press down gently until 
the tubes are seated. 
4. 

Plug the amplifier back in and turn it on. After 

the tubes warm up, you should hear music. 
Follow this same procedure when replacing tubes 
that are worn out from use. Tubes last about 5,000 
hours typically.

CAUTION! Dangerous voltages inside.  

Follow all instructions carefully.
1. 

Before plugging in the amplifier, insert the 

tubes. They’re both the same, so it doesn’t matter 

where they go.

2. 

Ensure tubes are well-seated. Align carefully 

and push down gently until seated. 
3. 

Plug in your amplifier and turn it on. The tubes 

should begin glowing after a few seconds, and the 
relay will connect the output after 20 seconds. 
4. 

Connect your source. And enjoy your music!
