Thank you, sir.
I'm patient and in the meantime, if I use higher impedance phones (HD600 or Pro 4AA) or even my inefficient speakers the buzz is much farther in the background and not as intrusive as with lower impedance phones.
Although I am not especially OC about this, I am aware of the unconscious effect of background noise that is consciously unperceptible. Especially when it slides in and grabs you during low volume passages or between tracks.
Buying replacement valves is ok, but if I wait these may just turn out to be the best valves I could hope for - who knows.
