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.

**Irrelevant. Jute lies to get his point accross. If he told the truth, no
one would care either way. When confronted by his obvious lies, he tells
more lies to disguise the fact.


Tubes were the most reliable and best sounding way to build an audio
amplifier up until relatively recent times

**Up 'till around 1968, that is quite true. It's now almost FOUR DECADES on.
Jute is STILL telling people about transistor amps which have not existed
for several decades.

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.

**Utter and complete ********. Due to the presence of the (expensive) output
transformers, alone, tube amps are priced well above an approximately
equivalent SS one.
