Well, I'll have to see how long they last in the application I'm using them in. My primary goal was to get between 80 to 90 watts per channel, which the amps achieve. If I get 2-3 years out of a quad under moderate use, I'll be happy with that. I have lots of them on hand.The amp has 600V on the plates, and the bias is set at 50ma.
