Why Preamps Thump on Turn on


I posted a fun discussion on my blog to get into the details of this turn-on phenomenon.

I leave my preamp on 24/7 - same as my amp. Both transistor. No thump from either on turn on/off. 

I turn on my McIntosh preamp and it then turns on my Mac power amp and Mac tuner,  No thumps or pops in my system.

This happens with asr amir too - in his rush to have a reply for everything in making response to anything, he too never reads first much, in then making an answer to an entirely different issue of his own manufacture. 😆
