PrimaLuna comes to mind as a company that has combined the best of modern technology with the best of vacuum tube sound quality. Their autobias has taken the mystery out of maintenance and brought tube rolling to the market for those who would otherwise not want to deal with such things. At real world pricing their products punch way above their price point. Driving tubes gently helps keep the cost of long term ownership reasonable. Lots of reasons they’ve done so well in a short time. Perhaps others will take a queue.
