Looks like $500, or $1600 (for the 2-units) or $2700 or whatever you can find in the way of a used tube-tester.
Of course, there is the alternative of sending tubes to a test-for-fee service, which is likely the most cost effective route. For those of us who are tube-rollers, this works well as we always have a set or two (or 5 or 6) of spares tubes to roll in when we think one may have gone bad. When I recently sold my SLI-80 I included 54 tubes.
Think that may be one of the primary reasons I just sold my VK-300xSE............. it only uses two (2) tubes and there are only 2 or 3 tube varieties to roll (boring  ).
