"What does the transformer inductance do to the load line of a tube?""It does not matter if your speaker does not go down to 31.25 Hz or not. If you are sending low frequency information to the amplifier, the amplifier will make the plate voltage move. If the plate voltage moves, the tube must spend bias current to charge and discharge the primary inductance as well as the actual primary load impedance. If the plate voltage or current "clips" because of low frequency plate excursions, the sound will suffer. "
