There are lots of Audio-fiers out there in the world with vacuum tube audio equipments.
And people prefer getting NOS tubes since they have better build quality and better SQ.
Now, I was just wondering...what would happen if all the NOS tubes were used up, and audiophiles were left with only newly or recently produced tubes?
Will the quality of the tubes being produced today improve significantly before that day comes? Or will people have to give up on the NOS tube, and have to live with worse-sounding contemporary tubes?
