Any simulation of a tube with SS in front or after the tube is not the real thing. SS amplifiers has a sonic veil over the sound vs a real tube amp.
I can recognize a 5 tube desk top radio playing vs SS every time even in another room.
When I hear a SS radio, I hear the SS radio playing. A tube radio playing kind of disappears leaving simply the voice.
