Single Ended Triodes (SETs), the ultimate tube lovers dream.

Not really because...

It's all about the matchup. I have found that certain speakers like certain amps. And you may be experiencing this phenomenon. It could be that whatever speakers you have right now simply like the amp better.

I've found that more often that not, the system will like tubes or SS and sometimes you'll have someone saying the exact same thing about SS.

Of course, that's ignoring the question about whether ultimately it happens more with tubes than with solid state, but I don't know the answer to that.

I can tell you that in my own experience, tubes are just so much cooler that I enjoy them more when they do work. SS amps just aren't sexy. Maybe the Niro Engines... but mostly, you know...black box.
