    Ahh..so my order was okay except, the power amp (tube) should be last ? Thank you !!! I got used to turning that one on first because of the slow start...it takes about 90 seconds (has a slow start feature, warms the tubes, then comes on0

    Thanks for the tip my friend !!!

    Rob, I keep my phono stage on all the time. Am I missing something in terms of a switch or do you unplug it every time? Perhaps it's on a power strip. Anyway, enlighten me bro!

    I have the Phonomena on a power strip switch (its the only item) I just don't feel right with it being on 24 by 7..can;t be good for the capacitors long term..
