Speakers often need a reasonable instantaneous Current capability for IMO worthwhile Dynamics especially so with 12" and bigger drivers.
Tube types are erm.. lacking in this ... period.
Whether this is an issue of concern is entirely up to the listener /owner.. as always.

Should be no issue selling your glow tubes.
Lotsa takers .. still.
Some Amp designs insert the transformers at the inputs Sound of Tubes and the Current of SS.

Having owned Extremely expensive SS... From Conrad Johnson to Krell to Bedini~~~> {the only SS I still own} ... tube equipment retain whatever recording venue included in the 'recording' ... call it ambience... in a superior manner along with higher resolution. Speakers? Quads, Khorns, Altec, Infinity, Proac, B&W, KEF, Magnepan, and of course my own designs.
I build my own tube amps and I have not heard better...
yet.
