Is it possible to remote on a tube amp


Is it at all possible to remote turn on a tube amp without hurting it. What I am considering is a power conditioner to remote power a tube amp!

Thanks

Actually, I value the remote more for powering off than on. When I'm finished listening, its nice to press a single button and have the entire system power down reliably (which in my case means sequentially) without having to fuss about with the 5 pieces of gear that need tending to. Often, I'm ready to head off to bed when I'm through and have quite a bit less patience with the equipment than when I first turn it on. Its certainly not a necessity, but I do appreciate the convenience.

Conrad Johnson Premier Tube Preamps have remotes, so I assume they work with Tube Amps. Try to eMail CJ or your amps manufacturer to see what they think.
Ken if you want to power down sequentially, won't doing by remote via your power conditioner turn everything off at the same time? I know what you mean about those late night listening sessions, as every once and a while I forget putting it back into standby, the final step in my sequence. Doh!
Jim: The 2500 has a set of outlets that are timed on/off so that the amps can go on last and off first. The unit is controlled remotely by the presence or absence of a 110V potential across a special input. I'm using a cheap remote controlled receiver with a switched outlet to control the whole thing. It isn't elegant, but it works very well.

Sugarbrie: Sadly, the CJ preamp doesn't have external facilities for controlling anything, and the amps (Premier 12's) are not designed to be remotely powered. I can use the remote to turn the premap on, but its not a terribly useful feature in the overall scheme. I do know that Furman has a current sensing remote unit for their power conditioners, but the 2500 was a better fit for my budget at the time.
