You are saying that "using ribbon/tube gear" is adding coloration and distortion to yield more “fatigue free” listening. (I am being less subtle intentionally.) If so, I agree in part. Electrostatics can be just the opposite in emphasizing detail and, if present, sizzle.
Of course, such generalizations have some basis but there are exceptions. OTOH, garbage in/garbage out is undeniable.
