Solid State for Rock and Tubes for Jazz, Yes or No


I love Solid State for most music but I do think Tubes are great for Jazz and Classical. Maybe we should have one each!

"Tubes can rock HARD (as mine do), you simply need the right amp/speaker match."

Yup.

Tubes rock with Zu Definition speakers too. And Klipshorns that I had as well. I could probably use a few more watts for my Zu's but 6 watts was plenty for 104 db Klipschorns.
I'm sure you can make this work with just a tube amp, as long as you carefully match it to your speakers.
Ive heard zu with a flea powered set amp fall short with rock music. More power might have done it.
I love my Tubes for Metal, Classical, Space Music, vinyl, Digital, movies and TV!
I have had both Solid State and Tube, but I love the tubes over the Solid State.
I do not understand why some people think Tubes cannot have Bass, my Tube Amps, Tube D.A.C., Tube Phono stage, Tube Pre-Amp all Rock, and Rock Hard with wall shaking bass! They will sing with the vocals, and in movies explosions can be felt! Maybe I just have all the right components to make it work? Or maybe my ears are just biased?

Who cares, Tubes Rule! Down with the Solid State!
