[QUOTE="jonb5150, post: 622778, member: 555460"] Exactly...only a punk who has no conception of natural sound would decry the tub amps tone and play it off as distortion, that is utter stupidity. These children cant get off this Richard persons dick about harmonic distortion, something both he and other members of this board have demonstrated multiple times they know nothing of. Tube amps are better period...they are not relegated to simply toning and shaping sound, they produce far lower distortion than ss amps and overall produce an exceptionally clean tone that no regular ss amp can touch. All regular ss amps are trying to do is EMULATE the resonant natural harmonics of a tube amp, and this is proven over and over with a myriad of manufactures on this neverending quest. To state that tube amps are somehow of poorer quality then a ss amp really boggles my mind, apart from simply being an assinine statement full of inaccuracy. The people who are pushing ss amps over a tube amp for sound repro come from 1 of three classes of car audio "enthusiast".... 1) your weekend car audio warrior to regurigtates whatever he overhead the salesguy say at the local car audio store (best buy, circuit city etc...) over the weekend while his father was looking at the latest tv's. 2)kids under the age of 20 who ve never even heard a tube amp and are simply going by heresy, typically lack the experience or ear to differentiate between good and "bad" sound. 3)people who simply talking out of their ***** because they have nothing better to do. Anyway, whether you agree or disagree with me, everything I said is right and if you disagree for whatever reason...you're still wrong. Tube amps own, the only drawback for a car that i can think is breakablility of the tubes themselves as they can be as fragile as a 60 watt light buld filament. [/QUOTE]
