Friends:
I can not speak to the subject of tube amplifiers specifically, but in my
experience, I have found that a PA system draws almost as much idling as it
does during a performance. I suggest that if you need to conserve battery
power, after sound check that the amps be shut down. Sound crew hates
this, they want to have the system blasting to prevent anyone from enjoying
a decent conversation, but it is one way to prevent a shut down during the
encore.

Dan;
Your system sounds great. I'd love to hear it sometime.
Just one question: how come no tube amps?
You're going to have some guitar players screaming; most of the best
guitar amps are all tube these days.
I know they waste a lot of power, but they're usually small compared to
the PA system.
I've measured a few with a no load draw in the 20 to 40 watt range, maybe
peaking at 100 watts. (Marshall 100w head)
I would think the Exeltech would make it sound better than they've ever heard.
Have you had problems?
