Ahoy there. Recorded a video since I figured you lot might appreciate it.
No engineers were harmed in the making of this video.

IIRC, the full (home) implementation (7.1.4) of Dolby Atmos needs 12 amplifiers, perhaps a 2 channel amplifier with the power switches interconnectable so that 6 2 channel amplifiers could be switched on/off with a single power switch on any of the 6 amplifiers.

Oh, he’s one of those! I should have recognized the wild eyed look for what it really is; someone who loves to see little boards burn, hear the sizzle, and smell the victorious solder go up in smoke. It all makes sense now.Please note how "Dave The Bitch" powered the thing up with a non current limited power supply.......... A brave but silly boy

120 W per channel into 2 Ohm load and SOFT CLIPPING!!How many watts per channel?

There are now sequencers available that turn things on one at a time so you don't blow a circuit breaker with the turn on surge.Does the term "power strip" mean anything to you? One little switch.
Unless, of course, you have 12 amplifiers that together draw more than 15 amperes.
Time to get a second electrical service installed to power the amps?
Yes, I've been using these professional sequencers for years-There are now sequencers available that turn things on one at a time so you don't blow a circuit breaker with the turn on surge.
They are available in both "audiophile" and professional versions.
valve amps
The current production Russian valves are excellent. My favourites are-1973 was the last time I dealt with tubes (Sears color TV), are the tubes available in 2021 good quality?

So I guess the USA just can't make them cheap enough given the what; environmental issues with manufacturing them, or simple economics?who'd have thunk????
Russia!!!
wonder why it's not made in China... like everything else in this plane of existence...

The only tubes I've ever had are in my Peavy guitar amp, which I switched out with some nice Groove Tubes 6L6's, maybe in the early 80's. But they sure made that amp sing. I think the Groove Tubes may be made in China now.
