Bren, I never attacked Alan. I just suggested he listen to the Ah! before he put it down.

Not to put too fine a point on it, but I think you're a bit off track when you describe tube amps as suffering from "even ordered distortion." Tubes enjoy even ordered harmonics. If you think nature prefers odd ordered harmonics over even, well, that's just odd.

I post my opinions based on my experience. I'm not looking to mislead anyone, or to lead them either. However, unlike you, I do not claim to know it all, but I do trust my ears.

Enjoy the Music. Trust your ears. Laugh at Folks Who Claim to Know it All.
