5. Техникалык тейлөө
5.1 Түтүктү алмаштыруу
The ECC83 vacuum tubes are user-exchangeable, allowing for sound customization. To replace tubes, ensure the unit is powered off and disconnected from the power source. Carefully grasp the existing tube and gently pull it straight up from its socket. Insert the new compatible tube (e.g., 12AX7-S, 12AX7B, 7025, 12AX7) ensuring correct pin alignment before gently pushing it into place.

5.2 Оп-Amp Алмаштыруу
The T20 also supports swapping op-amps for further sound customization. This procedure requires technical knowledge and should only be performed by experienced users. Ensure the unit is powered off and disconnected. Carefully remove the top cover of the unit. Locate the op-amp sockets on the PCB. Use an IC extractor tool to gently remove the existing op-amps (e.g., LME49720, OPA1612) and insert compatible replacements, paying close attention to orientation.
