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

I cant help but appreciate the irony of that statement...

And let me start by saying I dont write this to poke at you. Your certainly not the first to say this and wont be the last.

Just that considering 99.99% of all amplified (PA amplified mind you and that figure is a guess of course :) live shows are using SS pro amps in most cases. Clearly if its a live show just using personal amps on the instruments it could easily be only tubes driving said live show. But beyond that... You get the idea.

Makes you wonder then just what kinda sound we are all searching for in live recreation. If one is going to bother worrying about amplifier characteristics that is...

And yes I do own loads of SS and Tube amps of many topologies. They all have their own neat sounds to em. VERY speaker / room / expectation dependent.

Just felt like pointing that out.

Again no poking intended.
