Which is more important, current or voltage slew rate? Is this a tube vs. SS issue? And where (at what point(s)) do you measure each?
And one final question is there such a thing as the slew rate of impedance?

"is there such a thing as the slew rate of impedance?"

Technically speaking, no. Impedance is a RMS function. Slew rate is based on measurements of instantaneous values.

  To me it's one of the more important things because it's basically giving you a number of how quick an amp or preamp can respond to dramatic change in signal.You want the amp to be able to sound consistent going from extreme lows to extreme highs without sounding like your listening to two separate amplifiers that are mismatched.
