Tubes don't offer distortion. Typically any sound associated with 'tubes' is caused by transformers. I had a pair of 1958 stereo fisher amplifiers rated .5% THD at 50W x2 hum and noise -100dB freq response 20Hz-20KHz within 1dB.
Point being, even a 50 year old amplifier designed properly does not "offer distortion"
.5% is said by "most" to be below the threshold. and a S\N of 100dB is fantastic even now.
And I stopped using tubes for my main systems in 2002. I've had the nick since the mid 90s. So i can't change that now can I?
Sorry dude.
