Don't buy tubes yet. As long as you are careful and never mess with connections while the amp is on, you shouldn't be blowing tubes so easily. I haven't blown a tube in years. Yes, I have spares but mainly for fun.
First Tube Amp: Advice? Keep spare tubes on hand?
I'll be receiving my first tube amp in a few days.
Please let me know the basics I NEED to know. I really want to know if I should keep a spare set of tubes on hand.
I have read the primers I could find on line.
I thank all of you excellent Audiogon'r's for your excellent advice and information in advance.
