Yes but it's mostly audio people,or collectors.  I still have and use tube equipment on a regular basis.  Some of them are very pricey

Here's one of the better sounding tubes of interest to audiophiles. It's a modern tube of Chinese manufacture.

Gold plated connection pins, cryogenically treated ..... US$166.95 on sale. Some types are only ten bucks or even less, but this is the cream of the crop, until you get into some of the New- Old Stock RCAs and Telefunkens from the sixties. Double that price for NOS, Cryo'ed top brands.

The smallest country in the world by area is Monaco.  I think.

I thought that the smallest country in the world was Vatican City.  It is a sovereign country.
