Raymonda,
Looks like you obviously did not get Czarivey's joke - that you really had to specify which is which?

:-)
Unsound, while you are technically correct I'll bet you can't identify the colorations / response deviations while listening to music.

"Dollar for dollar through most typical loud speakers; high quality tube amplifying devices will more likely distort frequency response more than high quality solid state amplifying devices will."

The problem is distortion is overrated as a measurement of sound quality. So is frequency response. Gotcha covered. Lol. Besides, we found out back in the 70s and 80s that tube amps with 0.05% THD just plain sounded better than solid state amps with 0.0005% THD.
