Tube Home Theater PreAmp?

Why hasn't anyone made a HT Tube preamp? THey should. I know I would be interested.
Or a tube prepreamp to be attached to a SS DD/DTS preamp.

Of course, you would need a HT processor.

No, one needs something to decode digital signals and set levels and distances. DVD players do that. There's no HT pre/pro in my multichannel-audio/HT system. .
