Hi all,
I've browsed this forum for a long time and decided to join. I recently ordered a Bravo V3 headphone amp which has a tube amplifier. Exactly how hot do these things get? It's just a little amp with a single tube, but would it be okay to set it inside a large area in my entertainment center near other electronics or should I set it on top of the entertainment center so it can get more air flow?
I ordered this to go with my new Sony MDR-V6s which I am LOVING so far, but wanted to get that "tube" sound everyone talks about. I consider myself a bit of an audiophile, at least as far as I can afford (I'm a recent college graduate working a part time retail job to save for the GRE), so I'm looking forward to this, but I just would like to know any safety tips or tips to prolong the longevity of the tube in it (I can't afford to go order a bunch of different tubes to try at the moment).
Thanks all!
