Peter said, "Not with good quality sockets....."

You are right Peter,
    However, if the ceramic style sockets are used, there usually is not a 
problem. It is a different story with the phenolic type. The old Heathkit 
Warrior amp was well known for its problems when replacing the 811's. 
Especially if the tubes had been replaced frequently over the life of the 
amp. The phenolic would wear and you could wind up placing the grids at the 
filament potential.
