I know that Bugera amps are a budget amp and some people here frown on them but this new feature really interests me. It seems like this new system automatically biases the tubes according to how old they are so they are so that they have a longer life or something along those lines, There is also an led for each tube on the rear panel of the amp that shows you which tube went bad if this happens.

The reason this feature interests me soo much is because it would seem to save alot of money, assuming it actually works, and trips to an amp tech as I am not very electronically inclined. As it happens I am strapped for cash and would prefer to spend my money on other things than tubes and mantainence if possible. I have been suffering the sound of solid state amps ever since I started playing guitar because of the lack of money and since solid states are so reliable compared to most tube amps. Ive played plenty of tube amps and love the way they sound but the things that can go wrong with them and the costs prohibit me from even thinking about saving up for one for the time being.
Im posting this here because I am researching different features and amps so that when I can make an informed decision on what amp to to start saving up for. I am looking mostly at versatility and reliability.
Do any of you know if this is a feature exclusive to Bugera? Or maybe if there are other amp companies that do something similar?
Thanks for any advice.
