Tube amps are still being made, and among the newer ones there are many high dollar brands which are some of best amps there are. Many audiophyles prefer the smooth sound of tube amps over solid state. And vinyl has become very hot over recent years, with many companies designing and building extremely nice turntables to meet the demand. Many prefer the sound of vinyl. It's interesting to see the similarity, in that, there are many model railroaders who prefer trains - and their operating systems - from an earlier time.
Very true, and if people think their trains are expensive.......the audiophile end of this is mind boggling expensive, specially built 15k turntables, People buying silver wire for speakers that is like the price of a cheap car, just amazing *lol*. I have a modern tube amp, love it to death, just cause it is cool to look at, and I like vinyl, too
