Krisjan,
The thing that puts me off on the Vincent models is that some of them use odd tube types and also, I believe some of them solder the tubes right to the pc board instead of using tube sockets so they can be replaced when they wear out. But I haven't been able to find too much useful information in this area because Vincent's website is not the best for providing such information.
All I know is that I'd be very upset if I unknowingly bought a hybrid amp and found my tubes soldered directly to the board...
