What part of the Peavey VTM-120 and Music Man HD130 are solid state? Both
amps have preamp tubes and power tubes.

Keep the load matched to the amp......just do it. SS amps don't care
about load (as long as its not too low and drawing excess current),
tube amps do. Keep it matched, or risk a repair bill.


The MM HD130 has a 12AX7 'phase splitter' and EL34 output valves. The rest
is solid state. The circuit diagram is available from the MM site.
