| rule of thumb: how long do you leave a tube preamp on versus turning it off then back on? Use and enjoy what you paid for, you knew that tubes wear out.Just power them off at end of each session.

| What’s the best tube for a Sonic Frontiers SFL-1 preamp I am not familiar with SFL1 but a Valvo 6201 or 12at7wa will suit it nicely. Going sweeter a Mullard CV4024.G | |
