[Amps] New Tubes - Question

[Lee Buller]

Question....

I have a new pair of Taylor 3-500Zs from RF Parts in my amp.  Do they have to been "burned in" or "gettered" before actual use?  The seem to work fine and make power.  Never did that with the new SB-220 back in the day....just plugged them in and operated.  But, I've read comments here on the list about doing this....

In our day and age it seems that Common Sense is in short supply.  If you don't have any Common Sense - get some Common Sense and use it.  If you can't find any Common Sense, ask for help from somebody who has some Common Sense.  Is Common Sense divine?
