2 channels Tube amp in a HT setup


just curious, how many of you share your 2 channels system with the HT and using tube amps?

Do you feel bad about burning tubes when watching movies?

(I do)

I have an Air Tight ATC-2 tube pre in the output of my Integra DTC 9.8 and then have a McIntosh MC-402 amp for Front L-R that I use for my theater listening and a lot of 2-ch music. Then I have a pair of Viva Aurora SET monos (the convertible in the garage) that I hook up when I want to indulge in a pure tube bliss session. I was acutally a little surprised as I bought the MC-402 to be just for HT, but found it quite acceptable for 2-channel as well. I do worry a little about all the hours on the tubes in the Air Tight Pre as I typically do not turn it off.
