My Apologies to Miller Carbon

"The string of PMs..."

Hahahhaha

My BAT VK-6200 5channel amp stays on 24/7.
From a cold star it sounds best after about 4 days. Once the capacitors are fully charged the air around vocals/instruments as well as the decay is simply magic.

     My TacT 2.2X stays on 24/7*, as well as the BAT VK-D5, even though it uses 6 Siemens CCa’s.   That’s: unless there’s a storm on the horizon, or I’ll be away for awhile.

     *Both have Standby features, that reduce the current levels to their circuitry.    BAT's Standby keeps a much reduced level, to the tubes, compared to it's circuitry (NICE, but: I'm still glad those CCa’s have a 10K hr life expectancy).  

     Digital stuff just takes forever to reach quality sound, from a cold start, in my experience.

As a relative newcomer to this forum, I find millercarbon's posts very interesting and informative. He got me to put the Townshend  platforms on my "to buy" list when I can next afford it.

Re post #9,853:
I like MC when his sense of humor pops up....
(...but it did take him 26 min. to respond....hmm...*smirk*)

Means well to share knowledge, insight...only cranky when his tail gets stepped by 'something' specific or general...sounds like most, only better wrote then most...*tease*

Personally, I believe he blocked me some time ago.  No reason to hold that against him; I still read most of his posts. ;)

He has My Regards anyway, J
