I don't begrudge the sets for their appetites. We've gotten used to the BPC's running 10+ years without problem and then their flybacks crash and they go to the trash. I use my tube colors about 5 hours a week, mostly to watch something good (not the usual nite time TV). The hungriest piece I have is a McIntosh MI-3 scope. If there is a 6EA8 tube within ten feet of it, it's like a cat on a mouse! It goes thru them quite regularly! Most docile is my RCA KCS 166 black and white portable. It just works.
Now to see how hungry my RCA "Latham" is going to be
