But now I think you meant "OK, I concede the point, that was one of those details, and I don't claim it's true in the face of peanuthead's description of the needs of tube amplifiers that contain output transformers." For the record, would you clarify? Are you sticking to the position that a tube amplifier needs to have a signal running through it when it's on? Or abandoning it?

Nope. Just that when speaking with some Woo amp owners while meeting with them locally that they said it needed regular breaks after long sessions.

Also that it needed a load present which I thought meant an audio signal passing through it.

That's all, mate. Peanut cleared the air and as I said in my original post, consult Mr. Woo for the details.

You might also pop a xanax. It would help.

Best.

No tension here. I asked for clarification, and you provided it. Thanks. Of course your final superfluous sentences are excluded from my thanks.
