A couple of days ago I received my first tube amp, an Earmax Pro, bought from Adamzuf. He told me that I could have the amp turned on all the time, but I can't help but wonder if the tubes become damaged or "used up" in some way when the amp just sits there without a load to drive.
So please, tell me if my line of reasoning is correct or not. Also, please add some Dos and Don'ts about tube amps in general (for example if one should leave the amp on at all times or not). I've searched but I haven't found any good topics on the subject, and I feel I'm not the only one who would like to read up on some general info on tube amps.
Come on guys, let the info out in the open!
