Re: Tubed Power Amplifiers. Are the disadvantages too great ?
You are correct pure Tube Amps seem to slide under the radar when it comes to DC destruction of Speakers /etc.
in my 70 years owning Gears the only "tubes installed Amp" I had that destroyed Speaker Drivers was a Brand new just unpacked Counterpoint
Pre and Hybrid Power Amp Combo which proceeded to smoke out the room with unabashed fury taking outa pair of Spender BC1's.
The only other time was mid 70's Amcron 150 Pre and Power dittoed a new pair of JBL Jubal L65's in a mini Chernobyl !
I definitely recommend avoidance of the Pre + Amp brands mentioned above for the sake of your sanity and wallet
