Tomo, I wanted you to know that I got my new Brown Box today, and it makes such a difference for my Deluxe Reverb! Today my voltage out of the wall is 122, so I was able to get it down to 118v or 116v. I left it at 116 to be sure. I love the wonderful sound coming out of the amp now! What do you think?

Thank you Scott for letting me know! I am so happy for you! I think running via 116-117V is sweater tone and save tubes!

Same! My house runs 122V!

Please enjoy!

Do you leave your Brown Box on all the time? Or do you turn it off when you turn off the amp?

OH! You have to turn the amp off when you turn the Brown Box off because the amp is connected to it. LOL. Sorry, I did not realize this when I asked the question.

I leave that on. Sometime I turn it off. (when amp is not on).

That's great Scott. I leave mine on - not sure if it is right or wrong, but one less thing for me to mess with when I'm ready to play. I did watch a video of theirs, and they recommended running newer amps around 115 and vintage amps around 110. So when I'm playing on the '76 MMBA (80% of the time), I have it dialed to 110. When I play through the newer Hotrod Deville 212, I pull it back up to 115ish.

My wife always wants everything turned off at the end of the day. LOL. I'm working at 116, and it sounds beautiful.

Thank you Clay! That's great setting too. Your tubes are happy too.

Thank you for this post Scott.
I’ve been contemplating getting the brown box especially since I got the music master bass amp.
I know my wife is not going to be happy with another purchase but maybe I can convince her that it will save me money by not having to replace the tubes.
I’m going to order one now.
