Once the filter caps and rectifiers are replaced, I can't see any reason to worry about damage. I mean, if you're replaced critical power supply components, then the power supply should be good as new, and these sets were designed to operate this way. If you haven't replaced the filters, then it's really just a matter of time before you need to replace them, and I don't know if trying to soft start the set every time will really help prolong their lives. Also, you don't want to damage the HO tube - these are much harder to find than the electrolytic capacitors are!
