The vacuum tube amplifier has largely gone the way of the dodo, given that we are now living in an age of 7.1 channel sound. Still, there are some audiophiles that do prefer vacuum tubes to newfangled modern contraptions. Such people purchase vacuum tube amplifiers and pay very good money to do so.

The Gakken Vacuum Tube Amplifier kit is a DIY job that you can sit on your desktop and use in conjunction with your iPod, PC or anything else that you want to plug into it. You can buy it from South Korea for the price of W139,000, or $145. It looks great and the price is right.
