Really, this is very similar to what happened when the transistor radio came on to the scene. It did a terrible job of reproducing music (still does),

Really? I have passed the half century mark, and I don't even know anybody that even has a radio that doesn't have transistors. You must be one of the caretakers of the Smithsonian. My Grandad had one of those old radios of which you speak (tubes), and I hate to break this to you, but my digital transistor filled FM Stereo Tuner, transistor rampant Amp and Bose 901s would knock the socks of that static ridden piece of tube filled junk.

I think what you need is one of those new high tech stereo static/click inducers. The better ones have clicks, pops, high pitch squeals, hums, built in station unlock with random drift and all kinds of good stuff. Makes the modern stuff sound just like those old fossils you love so much. In fact you can just unplug the CD player and tuner altogether and just listen to the noise from the inducer. Then just sit back, listen and dream of tubes.
