No, the REX II amplifier is designed to operate without the need for manual bias adjustments when using these factory-matched tube sets. You can simply install the new tubes and begin listening.
Vacuum tubes in high-end amplifiers like the REX II perform best when they are properly matched for gain and transconductance. These kits take the guesswork out of the process by ensuring all tubes in the set are tested and paired to work optimally together.
Retubing is generally recommended when you notice a loss of high-frequency detail, increased noise, or a shift in the amplifier's overall tonal balance. Depending on your daily usage, most users find that a fresh set of tubes every few years keeps the amplifier sounding its best.
