I agree with most of what you are saying.
However my choice for "glowing" about tubes is simple and not the tube placebo effect. In my "quest" for the ultimate stereo in the universe I had no intention of ever ending up with a small, bland, generic looking 20 watt vintage tube stereo with dulled pitted generic looking knobs. It even has a cover on it so you can't enjoy looking at the glowing bottles. Bottom line is it really is just a good sounding stereo. That happens to have tubes instead of transistors.
I am going purely on sound and no longer on hype and obsessions.
I do agree with you that there is a cut off point when it comes to magic cables and wires. I'm willing to spend what ever it takes on cables and I'm using RadioShack's better cable. I can hear the cable forum collecting money right now to hire a hit man to silence me.
Enjoy the holidays
It's always a pleasure to hear from you
