    I seem to remember the VR-2000B that I worked with back in the day,
    also had tubes in the four record amps....similar to the early
    TR-70s.  <br>
    Seems like those big tube record amps were one of the major
    differences between a 1200 and a 2000.<br>
    But, then again, my memory may need recapping.<br>

        <div>The tubes in the VR-2000 were in the Mark 10 head pre-amp. 
          These were the four Nuvistors.  Don't see those any more.  The
          manual that came with my 1200 talked about shorting bars in
          the head pre-amp to reduce the gain.  I have no idea how that
          worked.</div>

        <div>There TR-70 had a modification kit for the machine to
          replace a tube driver in the record amps.  It was something I
          remember the U of M Dental school operator showed me.  </div>

        <div>Those were the only tubes that I am aware of other than the
          scope and monitors in the units.  </div>
        <div> </div>
        <div>The audio was transistorized as stated in another reply. 
          There were several modification bulletins for this part of the
          machine.</div>
