How about an aggressive marketing campaign that exposes some tube myths?
I could see the add copy; "Experts in a double blind test couldn't tell the difference between the Retrostein 20 and a 1966 Vibro Champ."
How about this for a segment on Penn and Tellers BS? Build a quality amp with a chassis design that prominently displays its tubes. The secret is that only the heaters are hooked up and the tubes aren't part of the actual amp circuit at all. It's all SS. Have folks test it and let them eloquently rave on about the tube warmth.
