How long are everyone's tubes lasting in their EDs? I realize that tube life is dependent on a whole bunch of things including the master volume, usage, and just dumb luck of how good/bad the tubes you have are, but I'm worried my ED might not be running properly as I've been needing to change tubes on the lower margin of what's "normal" - about once every six months (granted, I've only had the ED for a year now). I've been playing my amp fairly regularly - maybe an hour or so with a proper 15 min warm up 4-6 days a week, but I was under the impression that tubes could last a year or more at this rate, minimum.
Anybody else had to change tubes as frequently as me?
