So - I was checking out the new Boogie Mark V and noticed it had a BIAS switch for EL34/6L6 tube selection. This is on the back panel near the footswitch jack and fan switch. There is a note about not changing the switch while in operation and to be careful about hitting the switch while transporting the amp. I'm thinking you could accidentally hit this while pluggin in the footswitch cable.
Years ago I owned a Kitty Hawk M1 that had a Class A/Class AB switch on the front panel. Since it was right next to the power and standby switch I didn't think this was a great idea either.
Shouldn't these types of switches be less accessible? Some manufacturers place them near the tube sockets away from the panels.
