The issue is not whether you are entitled to your opinion, Bren. I think the point is that you are offensive in your expression of your opinions. You are intolerant of the opinions of others and insulting to those who hold opinions which differ from your own.
The fact is, nothing short of the genius of many people has been invested into blocks of sand and glorified light bulbs. Folks who tell you, from their own experience, that tube amps can provide a wonderful musical experience, in some cases superior to the best solid states amps, are neither charlatans nor ignorant.
Just my 2 cents, Bren.
