RE: Wow, strangely how we're converging to these things now. Deja vu all over again!

I have no strong argument with what you say, but I do think it is specious to talk about amplifiers in isolation from the speakers they have to drive. For a low efficiency, low impedance electromagnetic speaker with multiple drivers (if you like that sort of thing), solid state has definite advantages. However, there are many other types of speakers where particular types of tube amplifiers sound best, to my ears. Too many discussions of the relative merits of this or that type of amplifier seem to proceed on the unspoken premise that we can hook up an amplifier directly to our brains. Not yet.
