RE: "Those discs are just cosmetic"

I claim total ignorance on tubes or their use in a audio circuitry. Here is a snippet from a magazine review of the unit. May be you can translate in layman's English:
"The Pro-Ject Tube Box DS2 phono preamplifier has two 12AX7 dual triodes. It is designed with the first triode as the input stage and is cascaded with a 2SK170 J-FET transistor. The gain of this stage is about 70. The second triode is used as a classic gain stage biased into pure class A."
