Same odd reason some people prefer to ride a horse now & then! Not
difficult to come up with many other examples.

I'm not particularly attached to *tubes* as I am to my tube amp, whose
musical qualities have thus far prevented me from buying any other amp
(including SS), for fear it will not be as good. I am not one of those who
'collects' amps - one at a time for me!
The only part of the technology I don't like is the heat, which in the
summer can be a problem. That is why I am considering getting a SS low
powered amp for especially hot days. If it is an improvement over my tube
amp, all the better.
