It can really help to have a standby with a s/s rectified amp because that recto circuit will whack a full load to the tubies whereas a recto tube will soften the blow. The Carling switch gives you the three functions of separate on/off and standby switches, all in one switch = one less hole to drill in the control panel. Besides, it just works better/easier = down is off, middle is standby, top is on.
