Surrender to the flow
So its common knowledge that a stored amp suffers where a regularly used amp is healthier.
All of my gear gets used regularly or at bare minimum turned on and played once each quarter.
Except for ONE unit that I have stashed in the closet. For that unit I will drag an extension cord over and plug it in hoping that I'm keeping the caps charged by introducing electrons (life blood) to the unit regularly.
Is my thinking correct? Do I need to be running a signal through the amp and working the controls?
Is my method effective? Is there a better procedure to keep my stored amp healthy?
All input/ideas/facts welcome.
Thanks :thmbsp:
