I have a question to throw out to the forum. When a preamp is in "standby mode" is the rate of tube decay the same as full use of the unit? I am trying to determine when best to retube my BAT VK 31 SE. Any other BAT owners with some input?
Can't answer about standby mode but if 10,000 is a standard for preamp tubes, and it seems to be on many, then keeping it on 24/7 should maintain the tube life for about 13 months. Hope that helps as a start
