Your pictures are too small so I can't see what brand it is. Is it a power amp, headphone amp, preamp? I've seen tube gear with more tubes than that for what its worth.

I wouldn't want to replace the tubes in that. NOS tubes would get expensive.

Tubes are nice, I'm fond of attractive capacitors, myself.

Not many tubes, but the most beautiful ones

I always wished a high efficient speaker with a tiny 7w amp.
