Same here. I disengage my Space Heater when I use Ampeg PF-20T amp...

Vents are overrated. Stick the tubes out the top of the pedal.

On a somewhat related note (related due to tubes). I purchased an Ampeg PF50T a few months ago. Love the amp, but it presents a new problem. I had built my pedalboard around preamp pedals (Fliptop, SV-Pre, QuickSilver, Ictineo). I now find myself never turning on a preamp pedal. Am I doing it wrong?
That's what she said.Was that even a full minute?
Yes. There’s no reason not to use the QS in front of the PF. I flipped mine for a YBA100. But I set the amp for clean (dimed master, gain to taste) and the set the QS for my o/d dirts.Am I doing it wrong?
This guy gets it.Man... I'm a little embarrassed, like I'm legitimately sad/let down to the point that it's effecting my day. I just want to go home and sulk. I guess this is what true crushed dreams are made of.

Oh how I wish there would be another QS drop.
Crushed dreams in less than 10 seconds, but would still be happy to see one.
That’s the “edge of breakup” setting?
