I'm not a tube component owner yet but am going to be in the very near future hopefully with a new preamp. My question is regarding the terms microphonics and tube rush as they relate to the sound. What are they and what do they ultimately do to the sound. Thanks.
Thanks for the explaination. If you have a highly microphonic pre-amp, will that have a negative impact when playing music or is it just a phenomenon that is notice when tapping the tube when not playing music?
My pinkie must have slipped, thus inserting the hyfen inappropriately. Notice that I correctly spelled preamp in the original post. Thank you for the valuable inphormation, though. By the way, it appears you have way too much time on your hands and you should be spending it listening to your fonografs.
