Average? I've never seen one. Show me.

Motorola's VK 106 is an intercarrier set with four video IF amps and three audios IF amps. Andrea's prewar 1-F-5 is a split sound set with two video IF amps and one audio IF amp. Substantially different designs, but each one's tube count appears to be wholly unaffected by the scheme of the audio stage.

Unsupported declarations bring out the contrarian in me.
