Seems like the best "upgrade" for tube amps....


...is to leave the amps on for a few hours before playing. I've noticed recently that when I turn on my Joule amps and let them run for hours, it makes a huge difference in the dynamics and high end sweetness. It gets hot in our house, but it's worth it. Is there a technical reason for this?

Yes, it is true. Electronics do need some time to stabilize. This is especially true for tube gear which uses filament to heat up the electronics so after some time, they sound better.

Happy Listening.
