If the dampers helped the sound so much, why wouldn't manufacturers of amps or pre-amps use them? Dampers are, relative to the finished product, quite cheap.
Question About Tube Dampers
I have a Joule Electra tube preamp that I purchased here and it came with tube dampers on all the tubes. We all know of the advantages of using tube dampers on resonances and noise with tubes. Something I was thinking:
Are there any possible disadvantages to the sonics or performance of a preamp that you are aware of or have experienced with the use of tube dampers? Or is this always a performance positive?
