Many of the old solid-state amplifiers also have analog supplies.  The key is -- weight. If it's got iron, it's analog. 🙂

Ebay.  Search for tube audio amplifier.  Most of the results will be
crazy over priced.  Look for a junker that has to be fixed up.  Some
of the old brands are Heathkit, Eico, Grommes.  Lots of Heathkits out
there.  Example:

 Depending on where you are WRT Covid, estate sales, hamfests garage
sales and thrift stores are good sources.
