@larryi my tubes always seem to last longer when I leave the equipment on 24/7, tube filaments always seem to burn out quicker when I power them on and off daily.
Leave it on?
I just listened to Paul McGowan explain that turning SS equipment on and off degrades the capacitors from the tiny power surge and that leaving SS equipment on ALL THE TIME is best. What do you do?

@larryi all my tube equipment have tube rectification, it's usually harder on the filament during turn on, even if tube rectification is used. |
@gano if global warming was so dire, then we shouldn't even be listening to stereo equipment, it's not a necessity. |
@mylogic I suppose you believe that oil is bad, but you would not have an audio system without it, even if you use solar power. |
@mylogic many thousands of products are made from oil, how much do you think all those products will cost if we aren't using carbon fuels? |
