Tube preamplifier lifespan
Do tube preamplifiers, excluding tube replacements, have shorter lives than solid state preamps?
I have a Sonic Frontiers preamp built in '94 that still sounds great. Many small signal tubes can last 10,000 hours , that's a lot of listening time.
I've had it about 5 years and it still works flawlessly.
