Hi Steve. I assume that the 8W that you refer to is the power output of the amp, which does not directly relate to the input power / current. With the output tube plate dissipation, filament power and power factor of the transformer are taken into consideration, it is likely that your amp is drawing at least 0.5 amps at 120V - twice the current rating of the buck transformer 120V winding if it is a 25VA transformer.
