In a "combo" guitar amp the entire amp including the tubes are in the same box as the speaker. Since the mid 30s. It works great.
Tube microphonics
Hello. I am using Audio Research Ref 750 mono blocks and they in front of my speakers but off to the sides. Someone told me on another site that if I move the amps beside the speakers and not in front of them , my system will improve immensely. It will reduce tube microphonics. What are your opinions of this and I just want to say that I’m very new to tube amps so this is something I never heard of before. Thank you all.

@mulveling @jjss49 @jetter Thanks for clarity on tube dampers on tube power amps. @mulveling Hell no I’m not gonna spend almost 2k just for looks. Wouldn’t even spend 50$ just for looks on a tube damper without it doing nothing. |
@onhwy61 I was thinking the same from the very beginning too. Plus my speakers are B&W 800 matrix. Top and bottom bass also. They act like having 2 subwoofers on ea speaker. |
And: you were correct. ie: https://upscaleaudio.com/pages/microphonics
