I've noticed some static coming from my right channel and confirmed it was from my right 12ax7 tube. I've had my MG Head DT/OTL on 24/7 for about a month now, and I pulled out the 12ax7's for inspection and noticed the glass was burnt at the top front of both. Only one is producing static. My question is if leaving it on for that long generally does damage tubes in the manner described or if this is just coincidence. Can someone who has left their tube amp on for at least as long as I have comment?
While I'm at it, does anyone know what the +/- switch on the power supply unit of the MG Head DT/OTL Mark II does? At which do I want it set?
