Home Tube DIY Asylum

Do It Yourself (DIY) paradise for tube and SET project builders.

RE: Extend tube life options..

how about using a new production set of tubes you like to idle the amp most of the time and drop in your WEs when you listen critically?

I run my 2a3 amp with JJ 2a3-40s on most of the time. Its definitely on a lot more than off.

Out of laziness it just stays on for days sometimes.

the only other thought I have is a set of load resistors to swap in place of the 300B and again keeping the amp on 24x7.
