Your problem is that you know I'm right but that you have thirty years
invested in commercially telling people tubes are obsolete.

Jute, you know very little about amplifiers, and you are certainly not
right about this. Tubes have been obsolete for the best part of fifty
years, except for fashion victims who like big shiny toys that glow in
the dark.

Jute's a ****penis, but the fact is people buy audio equipment like
women buy designer dresses and that isn't going to change. If you want
some booty you let her spend her money the way she wants and don't
balk.

Tubes were the most reliable and best sounding way to build an audio
amplifier up until relatively recent times and they still work very
well when correctly designed. Solid state amplifiers that are truly
well built are not much cheaper than tube ones, and if they made more
tube ones the price would come down and quality go up.
