Romy,why do you feel the SS amps will not provide as good bass as tube amp? Since there is such a big selection of SS amps, also hybrid one, is it a general rule, regardless of amp power and type? Is it the type of distortion that's inherent to tube amps that makes them specially enjoyable in the bass region?

Well, can answer a question why do I “think” and bring many existing theories why SS do not do bass well. I do not know what theory would be “right” but I do not particularly care “why”. So, what I do it use purely imperial evidence without caring too my “why”. If I look at the best SS amps that I even hear and compare the bass they produce with best SET that I heard then it is very clear to me that no SS amp can even close to state to a good SET in bass performance. If you do to bass DSET world and do proper uploading of Triode and manage to maintain bass still in Class A then in my view (feeling) you get the best bass audio is capable to produce. Why? Well, I have too much on my plate now to care. I would prefer to listen the Poulenc’s Organ Concerto then to wax poetry about reasons that will not able to proof anyhow.
