      Not only sound, but they were one of the main components of computers, once upon a time.

        Ah, a tube amplifier -- good for you!

        The receiver from '83 -- that's a toss up -- I'd bet it has integrated circuit boards.  Not trying to give you a hard time...it was pretty amazing how quickly vacuum tubes left the mainstream electronics.

        lol, creative should make an X-Fi card and replace all the transistors with vacuum tubes.

        Sure, it'll be a box three times the size of the PC, but the sound should be great. LOL... reproduce the entire X-Fi chip with vacuum tubes...
