You know you or Jim aren't alone on this because I state it publicly in my signature line.While I clearly understand the argument of some,that audio will never be an exact science and to go with what sounds good to the listener,I still think we should at least try to emulate the original source as much as we can.I haven't found circuits with excessive 2nd order distortion to be able to do that..Yes,certain types of distortion can be seductively pleasing under the right circumstances however, I still want to strive for a reasonable facsimilie of correctness,while at the same time enjoying the seamless attributes that vacuum tubes offer in a hifi audio system.
