I know they mean well...but they are evil. E V I L I tell you !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I switched the Gumby to my tube dac so I can burn in 2 sets of tubes at the same time.Same here. I keep checking in to see how the cooking is going. And folks like rnros tell me great tubes and AuditoryCanvas sends me goodies and then I keep reshuffling the burn-in order. I'll get to them all eventually...I think.
“It’s damn hard listening to music, you know that.”
Gotta find time brother as it’s food for the soul.
Tube capabilities aside, don't take the ability to simply listen for granted. I just listened to music on my rig for the first time in a week, after getting wiped out with the worst flu I've had in years, and it all still sounds like schitt...high end is painful, and the bass and low mids are virtually missing....probably still need another week for my head to clear and my hearing to get back to normal. Feel like I just rose from the dead...No easter pun intended.
I like puns. I hate burn-in.
Get better bro.
Quickest way to tell is to lightly tap one of the tubes, you should hear more of a 'ting' in one ear. Alternatively, pull one tube, then turn it on and play some music. You won't do any damage, just make sure the amp is off when you pull the tube and plug it back in after.Does anyone know which tube position is the left/right channel on the Lyr 2?
ie: What stereo channel (left or right) is the front tube located closest to the front-panel (where volume knob is located)?
Glad your feeling better bro, been a rough winter health wise for me, nothing major nasal infections and sore throats.Tube capabilities aside, don't take the ability to simply listen for granted.

I thought tapping was not recommended on tubes and I was afraid to run it without one of the tubes installed... I guess no one else has tried to figure out which tube goes to which channel?
Front tube is left channel IIRC.I thought tapping was not recommended on tubes and I was afraid to run it without one of the tubes installed... I guess no one else has tried to figure out which tube goes to which channel?
