The cables and jacks should be kept clean for optimal fidelity. The easiest way to
do this is to clean the male pins on your interconnects and headphone cables with
contact cleaner or 99% pure alcohol BEFORE you plug them into the amp.
!
Doing this will keep the insides of the jacks clean. A serious audiophile will do this
every few times the cables are removed and installed.
!
Tube pins are equally important and should be cleaned every time a tube is
installed. Once again, this will keep the tube sockets clean which is critical for
maintaining top fidelity. Tube pins can be cleaned with 99% pure alcohol or a pencil
eraser.
!
In addition to keeping tube pins clean, the smaller 9 pin tubes have thinner pins
that must be kept straight. If you notice the pins are bent they must be
straightened prior to inserting the tube into the socket. A simple way to accomplish
this is to have a tube pin straightener available from Decware.
