It is easy to conclude that tubes are a lot of work. Before I retired, I never changed a tube, even though I had some components for six or seven years. Now that I am retired I listen to music a lot more. So, I just changed the tubes in my preamp and amp after four years. I have had no "interesting" experiences with tubes other than incredibly great, musical and natural sound quality. If you listen to a hour a day depending on the application it is likely they will last ten years, often small tubes, more.
Best amp for Sonus Faber
Which integrated amp do you believe is the best match for Sonus Faber Olympica Nova (and why)?
Currently using Luxman 509Z - and have just bought Olympica Nova III.
I’ve heard a lot of different views: Hegel, Accuphase, McIntosh etc
Keen to hear thoughts and experiences - and any which a big mismatches too!
