Anyone has a reference system where amplification is SS ?

McIntosh MC500

This the stupidest post of 2023

2023 who really cares about tubes like 1980

bro wake up 

I have all three, SS, Tube and Hybrid, I always win.

Now what is wrong with this post? Pretty innocuous, who was offended by this enough to have my earlier post deleted? Some woke stuff bouncing around it’s head. .

@audioman58 Could care less about sales figures, was stating the fact they make tube amplification. Knowing how Japanese and after doing business with the Japanese for 40 years, they sell more than you think. If it doesn’t sell they would get out of the business of making tube amplification.

@lordrootman  guessing you do not get to a lot of audio shows. Or read many of the e zines. Tube amplification will out live you or I bro.

Jakes dad I don’t see what is your point ?

I never said anything about Luxman tube amp ,integrated amps not selling ,they are very good products.

my point was there is many times more Solid state sales  world wide nothing more.

I was not trying to debate ,just the facts much more SS gear is sold nothing more,

Priced from low expensive ,to insanely priced.

Most people put their prefered fetish over synergy, acoustics, electrical and mechanical controls of the system and even over the evident trade-off implied by each design specifics be it tube or S.S. ...Or class D  or hybrid etc ...

Acoustics science  ignorance, and engineering  trade -off complexities choices  ignorance  goes hand in hand with one prefered  fetischism  advocacy for all ...
