When to change Power Tubes?
This is just a thought, I am just getting back into tube amps I have a Marshall TSL-122. Do you usually wait till you hear some changes in your tone then change the tubes or regardless of tone change just change them once a year? If I change them once a year does that take away some of the stress on the other components such as the Output trans. Whats your advice or maintenance schedule for tube changes

Change them when the tone starts going south. And read the Tube Amp FAQ at GEO.
