Try This With Your SS Amp

Enjoy !  Lifting them.....   and listening too.   I hope you don't ever go completely to the dark side 

Many moons ago I had a CJ premier 11 amp.  It had Svetlana 6550's.  The violet color plasma within the tubes would swirl around.  It was memorizing.  Alas, no Svetlana tubes being built any more....

I am doing same with my ss amps. Class A ss mono blocks generating plenty of heat, and then deliver the tube glow from the quad tubes in my pre amp.

I live in the Caribbean so I don't need any extra heat, thank you.  I use Class-D amps partially to avoid the waste head.  Cooling is just as expensive as heating and local power generation costs are ridiculous. 

I get my tube "fix" via pre-amps. The tubes get "uncomfortably warm" as opposed to hot.  I also opted for a pre that allows me to bypass the tubes or even go completely passive, if I'm in the mood for "ultra accuracy". 

I light a candle and enjoy the superior sound of SS.
