The XM does! When I started in TV in the '50s electronics were much like mechanics, you could see all the individual components, how they were constructed and very often, what had gone wrong with them. Bring back valves I say.

Me too! I still use them in guitar amps. Nothing compares to a valve amp for playing a guitar through. A pal and I have done a lot of listening tests on a many valves and we can hear a difference....
