You should hear a good quality tube amp and you may change your mind about quality sound.
... and if you don't like the sound, wait 10 minutes.
It's not so much that I want everyone with a tube amp to switch to solid state electronics... some people like the way they sound. Fat, round, smooth, sleestak - whatever term they want to use for the effect.
It's the reverence that the tubeheads use that gives me a chuckle. It's not the Holy Grail, it's a light bulb with a screen and anode.
Then again, I don't understand buying a "heritage" house on Martha's Vineyard for $2M that's 300 sq. ft and all the interior doors I wouldn't trust on an outhouse.
Everyone draws the line somewhere different between respect for the past and suitability for life for the present.
