Oh, summer in the city! Yesterday it was 102 in Chicago, and 119 in my upstairs loft that houses my tube-based system. Needless to say, I didn't turn the music on last night. Tonight, however, is another story entirely. 85 outside and 93 in the loft. The amps are fired up and I digging the Op. 2 Sonatas of L.V. Beethoven.
Considering the temperature at which tubes operate, I don't think they'll even notice the weather. I notice it, though. And 8 KT88's, 8 6922's, and 2 5687's (the really hot ones) probably make my room just a little bit hotter.
Small sacrifice for L.V.B.
I worry more about humidity than heat. I should probably get air conditioning..........
Cheers.
