I don't mind talking about the "soul" of tubes. In my experience, the Kron 2A3 is vastly better Sovtek, etc., and better than NOS RCA 2A3 in my opinion. It has much more "soul" -- to the extent that listening became rather dull without it. I was shocked to discover how much more "feeling" and "emotion" was expressed by one apparently-identical tube compared to another. Some people have reported the same thing from different makes of rectifier tubes!

I would guess that people who make fun of others talking about the "soul" of tubes have not had this experience.
