OT: Care and feeding of vacuum tube electronics?

...

And while an audio amplifier performs a very simple analogue computing
function, I still think it's mildly off-topic. NOTE : I am not flaming
anyone for going off-topic, just stating what I think the boundary should be.

Well, I can relate it in one way to classic computing.  I've got an ancient
Bell (late 40's) tube amp connected to an old ad-lib card in my 1985 IBM
5170 so I can get better sound than with the teeny 2" speaker that came with
the card (yes - it has a mono output).
