We aren't talking about what need be, but what is typical. The typical
valve amp lives in an open backed box with a 12 inch Celestion speaker
and quarter inch jacks for inputs. It also hums like it has forgotten
the words.


That is what *was* typical.
Things have changed:-)

How many hundreds of thousands of AC30s, Fender Tweeds, Marshall 50s
etc are still out there and going strong in pubs every Friday night.
They are still very much typical.


I thought we were talking hi-fi here?

No - typical valve amps. Hi Fi is a begged question in that it will
necessarily have low hum and noise, which would make the whole
discussion sort of pointless.
