Where do you think the "sound" comes from?
The shape of the output signal from a tube stage is dependent on the transfer function of the tube.
The shape of the output wave form is the spacing of the grid lines on the plate curves along the load line.
"sound is king"
The shape of the output signal IS the "sound".
Audio electronics isn't magic.
The audio that comes out of a tube stage is a function of the science of the tube involved.
A tube with shitty (uneven) spacing between the grid lines along the load line on the plate curves will give shitty (distorted) audio output. Period!
I get tired of all this BS talk of magic dust.
Before you go making proclamations about subjects that you clearly don't understand read a technical book and learn something for Pete's sake.
