Helpful so far, glad Mercedes asked. I've quite enjoyed my little ASL tube headphone amp, without really knowing what biasing and 'tube rolling' mean. I was simply assured that it was taken care of at purchase. So, now that we have the general definition, what are we looking for to make adjustments? Is there typically a knob or set screw on the exterior of a given amp or pre-amp?
