Great information. And it makes me wonder about my 5 year old integrated tube amp. Would you leave that on 24/7?

I had a small system as a kid. But my neighbor had this beautiful system with SAE pre amp and amp, Akai tape decks, a Sansui direct drive turn table, Burwin Click & Pop and stunning Dahlquist speakers.

Decades later, I had a NAD AVR but was lured by the concept of easy streaming via a Bluesound Node… the rabbit hole opened and I descended.

Currently running a Unison Research Triode 25 Integrated Amp, Node N130 into a Gustard A26 DAC and out to some Zu Dirty Weekend Six speakers.

Just added some Auva speaker isolation feet replacing the Gaias I had and… WOW!

Definitely my Unison Research Triode 25 Integrated Amp (when it comes back from service).
