Default Do New Tubes Help a boatanchor?

I have an S-38 and a Lafayette HE-10. They work OK, and have been
recapped and restored, but would all new tubes help? The tubes are
all original in the HE-10 and some have been replaced in the S-38.
Just wondering if it is worth it to buy all new tubes to go along with
the recapping.


Almost certainly a waste of money. If you DO want to swap tubes, at least
test them first.
