My Herron VTSP-1 was the second or third production unit Keith built, and the input tubes started getting a little noisy after 8 years. No biggie.Properly implemented, preamp tubes last a long time and should not be cause for fear. I have never heard a solid-state phono stage that can compete with my tubes (though the SS phono board in the Herron HL-1 preamp is very, very good in its own way).
As John N notes, your challenge will be that hardly anyone ever sells a Herron phono stage.
