Kickass explanations! A lot of things I wanted to know in here.

I was actually never sure how you were supposed to turn on a tube amp.

There's a lot of useful info in this thread, I certainly leant a lot about tube amps... just makes me want a "real" amp more & more now...

great ceasars ghost.. I actually didn't know that , not that I'm super knowledgeable .. but I was doing it the way you described it above most of the time,,, & sometimes just shutting it down(power-off only) when pressed for time. THANKS!

I'll be sure to pass along the info-just shut it down & nvm the standby.

I am considering buying my first tube amp, and found this page very helpful.
