Is it really bad to operate my amps with the 12A6 tubes? I've put a lot of hours on those mono blocks and aside from some caps and a resistor they have been quite reliable....Not like I have or can afford getting two new pairs of output tubes for the next couple of months anyway....

What are 211's BTW?
