| Some noise issues with my new VPI Prime Looks like VPI now selling DIY kits instead of finished product right? | |
| Some noise issues with my new VPI Prime Fairly recently I had buzz that I thought coming from amp. When I brought it to my lab, there was no buzz when connected and hooked up. I literally checked all of my main system components, but it turned out the light bulb that was buzzing very lo... | |
| Is it a OK to leave tube pre-amps powede up 24/7 1. transistors in most class A/B and class D amps don't and there are many class A/B amps that don't run hot.2.

| Is it a OK to leave tube pre-amps powede up 24/7 1. tubes dissipate heat that dries out electrolytic caps. 2. occasionally blown tube can blow other circuit components or even set circuit board on fire. _______________________tubes worm up a lot faster than transistors and caps 'fill up' with ch... | |
| Interconnect cables for turntable In the days back the external turntable interconnects came with ground wire bonded as one stereo cable with 2 RCA ends at each end. The signal wires there are 26AWG or thinner. That is to say that dedicated wires for turntable with fine gauge shou... | |
| Is it a OK to leave tube pre-amps powede up 24/7 Short answer is NO with any model. Not only it's unsafe, but it's useless waste of tubes and other circuit components as well. It's a huge tax on component longevity. | |
| Audiogon "Member Since" Dates errors now imagine security issue with this green and inexperienced child driven development crew. i only trust pro's not amateurs when i'd like to sell or buy something. | |

| Can you leave class D amps on and not ever turn them off? Transistors live longer when they're always ON.They have life of up to 60k hours when ON and much shorter than OFF.Electrolytic caps also benefit from being always ON except if under high temperatures. Leaving on even clas A/B amp isn't a problem ... | |

| Leave amps on? Some of amps OK to be on, some of amps not OK. For me it's not OK to leave tube amp on if not used and so is for solid state class A amp as well. It will decrease their operational time by very very far.It's OK to keep clas A/B amps on again as lo... | |
