What the hell?....20 warranty including the tubes The bryston of valve amps.
Is it really a 20 year warranty if the expected lifespan of the company offering it is a few years?
Exactly what I was thinking. Hell, if I were Bob's age I'd give them a 100 year warranty!
http://bobcarvercorp.com/For those who REALLY like tubes...Those speakers look really intriguing, too.
Add my name to this. Thinking a Chinese or Russian output tube is going to last that long is absurd. Even my favorite NOS MIL -SPEC power tubes such as 807/1625 on occasion go south, and I would dare argue that tubes of your were made with better materials, quality control, and overall knowledge. Peoples lives depended on a properly working 807/1625!
Freo, I believe, this is a "replacement warranty," not a guarantee of tube life...something he can afford to do at those prices and factored in when they were determined
I doubt he'll care very much what happens 50 years from now...
.....[quote ended up with Emotiva acquiring some of his key tube electronics designs--being used as the basis for the launching of Emotiva's own US produced line of tube electronics).huh, I was not aware of that part. Are they made under the Emotiva name, and are they any good? Now I'm curious.
