someone asked about my amps. They're just this kind of nonsense. https://mastodon.network/media/WZV6CiPngXPuarkX-P8

@caitlin Oh wow *swoons* It makes me so happy when folks build valve gear!

@dBu_fs The glow is pure quantum mechanic JOY. #jinglejangle

@caitlin unlike in Uli Behringer's mic pre-amps where it is an orange LED underneath ;-)

@dBu_fs Yeh, fake valves can get in the sea. Yamaha's tiny wee amps do sound nice regardless though.

@caitlin Oh, the crazy thing is: it is a real valve. Just driven so tepidly that it does not glow - so it never breaks. Cos if it breaks you realise that a new one costs more than the whole device ;-)

@dBu_fs Taint the drive that does the glow though, the glow's the heater which is emitting all the electrons for acceleration and adsorption or whatever by the magic science plates of quantum bafflement. #bias #valves #glowy
