How long will tubes last in a pre-amp?


My Sonic frontiers Line One seems fine, tho I haven't put anything else in place of it to test.

It is a decade or more old.  Should I get worried about the tubes?

Preamp tubes are not too stressed, they can last a very long time, except in this one I know of, Audible Illusions 3A they ran them very hard.

Check for micro-phonics though by gently flicking the top of each tube with the finger nail while at normal listening level, have some one listen at the speakers, very small noise is normal, loud ones can mean this tube has gone miro-phonic.
In my ARC REF 3SE I replaced all the small tubes by 6H30P-DR ,
they should last more than 10.000 hrs.
Why not replace them? Preamp tubes are inexpensive. Ten years of use with any tube will wear down!
