Now, not all tube amps are the same, and neither are all solid state amps, nor are all violins the same. There are Strads and Guarneri and those made in Taiwan. Ask an accoustical engineer to explain the difference in sound between these different instruments. Think of all the different components, circuit choices, material choices that go into a solid state amp and then wonder at the proposition that all solid state amps with the same specs sound the same.
Ay ay ay. Please tell me you didn't just use the fact that violins sound different to support your reasoning for why solid state electronics
should sound different? Please? I'm begging you.
