When I bought the house, I had to buy new tubes for it but they were not very expensive on eBay. Maybe $20 total. FYI though, you probably don't want to put anything in place of that control unit other than another Nutone unit because the speakers are generally a different impedance than standard audio gear. That being said, I believe nearly any Nutone intercom will work with nearly any Nutone remote station. In other words, you can keep your original cool looking metal remote stations and you could put in an master unit like mine(if you could find one) or a brand new unit(or at least a MUCH newer one). That being said, I personally have found the sound to be more pleasing on my tube-based intercom than on any of the newer transistor-based Nutone units so I would try to stick with an older unit if possible. Here is the link showing my master unit: http://www.notanon.com/electronics/two-channel-mixer-for-my-intercom/2010/04/21/ I have an old 1960′s Nutone intercom at my house and installed a small two-channel mixer so I could plug in a stereo source to it.
