I know I am supposed to leave my Line 3 SE on standby to reduce tube thermal cycle, but I listen to my system only on weekend since I work long hours and have kids to take care during the week. So which way is better for the tubes in my case?
If you only listen to the Line 3 SE on the weekends, I agree with Rec's statement. Even on "standby", the tube life is being used up, although only at 10% of that when they are "on". That "10%" is from an old brochure that SF put out a while ago (I have the Line 2SE).
