Sadly a good tube tuner is only worth having if :-
It's been restored and aligned,
You have some good FM stations doing minimal processing,
Doing music you care about
and, you have a directional antenna with enough gain to get the tuner into full limiting on all your desired stations.
In fact, all of this is true of any tuner, but a tubed tuner will need a good bit more gain from a directional antenna.
Leaving aside tube/valve sound, such tuner's RF front-ends are far more resistant to overload from strong out-of-band RF signals than almost any SS tuner.
